A joint case is a case where husband & wife file together.
The requirements for involuntary cases are set out in federal law, 11 USC section 303. The requirements are complicated. Very few involuntary cases are filed as the punishment for filing an involuntary case that isn't justified can be substantial.
A motion & its notice should be filed together. Notice may be shortened if the facts warrant is as described in local rule 9006 & FRCP 60(b).
I would urge you to retain competent representation if you are considering pursuing this course of action. |
