Broke and confused

[crafty lady]

What is the name of your state? CA
I received a judgement in our divorce in two different areas. One was for credit card purchases that we both had charged on my credit cards. Ex is going to file bankruptcy. I have been told that he can include what he owes me and I will never see a dime. My question is the next part of the judgement reads:
"As and for spousal support, and as a contribution towards attorney fees, it is ordered that Respondent shall pay to counsel for Petitioner the additional sum of $6,000.00 due forthwith." Can he include this portion also in a bankruptcy?

I was told that I can file an "injunction" (whatever that is) to stop him from being able to charge any of my judgement off. Right or wrong?

I believe your attorney fee's and spousal maint. is safe, but the credit card debt could be up for grabs. You need to make sure you make yourself avail to his bankruptcy court.
