    Default Chapter 13 and Savings Account

    My question involves bankruptcy in the state of: NY

    I am filling for chapter 13. Can my wife have her own saving account and not be frozen due to my chapter 13?

    Thanks.

    Since N.Y. is not a community property state & if you're filing alone, only your property & jt. property will be considered. Your wife's bank (savings) account with only *her* money in it & in her name *alone* will not be considered in your bankruptcy.

    If you're considering bk, talk to a bk attorney. The bk laws are quite complex.

    Adding to my above post, I note from your previous threads, you had already filed for Chapter 13 bk but you were/are having problems with your attorney. You might want to talk to a different attorney as suggested previously.
