Find the best financial services for you at: SMARTFINANCESOLUTIONS.NET - A question about bankruptcy...? - My ex and I share 5050 responsibility for our childrens medical. After my ex paid the doctor 100 of the bill with a credit card, he filed for BK one year later. I have been making monthly payments to him for the 50 I owe, since he did not choose the payment plan the ortho offered to us both. Do I still need to pay him the monthly checks even though the debt was BK'd for him.
