Legal Question in Bankruptcy in Utah

Re: house loan ,divorce decree ,bankruptcy

One can file bankruptcy after a divorce and be discharged from the debt from the creditor, however, because of the divorce decree either one of the two things occur - joint debts for which the husband are responsible are not discharged by the bankruptcy court OR the court will enforce the duty of the husband to reimburse the spouse and indemnify her from the debt. Bottom line, one way or another after a divorce your husband will have to pay the debt. The reality is that the wife may have to pay the debts to the creditor, but she is entitled to recover all amounts she paid from the husband.
