Wondering how bankruptcy works if you are married. Say if one has awful credit, and the other has really good credit. The one needs to file for bankruptcy. Will the bankruptcy affect the other spouse? Or can the one do it alone without affecting the spouse at all? Any info or sites to look at would be appreciated. THANKS!
It will because they look at BOTH incomes and now that the bankruptcy laws have become more strict, it is even harder to file for bankruptcy. you can try these sites:

www.law.cornell.edu/topics/bankruptcy.html
www.lectlaw.com/files/bnk06.htm
Hope this helps
