Thank you for your question. I understand your concerns as it relates to a divorce. In New Jersey, the filing of a bankruptcy does stay a divorce in the sense that the distribution of debts cannot occur until the finalization of the bankruptcy. In any event, your Wife can still seek information as it relates to records. As part of the divorce there is a period of discovery where both parties are entitled to obtain information from the other party to assist in resolution. Whether or not this leads to information that is relevant is another issue. Based on your circumstances, it would be best to contact an experienced family law attorney to address your specific concerns.I hope this information was helpful to you.
