Bankruptcy & Equitible Distribution?

North Carolina Divorce Law Divorce and Separation Answers
#1

Due to my $$$ situation compounded with this separation, I have no choice but to file Bankruptcy.

On another note, I filed for Equitible Distribution a few weeks back.

Should I file the bankruptcy first, before turning in the EDI ?
Do I need to tell the Judge assigned to my case my intent of filing bankruptcy ?

I’m putting together my EDI, but some of it will be a moot point when I file Bankruptcy.

Is there any advantage to me filing bankruptcy before completing the EDI ?

What consequences or issues will arise if my STBX and I get into the EDI, and EDA, then I file bankruptcy ?

If I file for Bankruptcy, does that put the ED Case on hold ?

The ED case should follow the bankruptcy case, and you should apprise the family court that you have initiated these proceedings.
