If a co defendant has received a bankruptcy stay in our case, can I still get a fair trial without him?

Bankruptcy lawyer at Thomas Vogele & Associates, APC
Whether a party is an indispensable party is not a bankruptcy question, per se. In this case you should have your lawyer seek a stay of the action against you until such time as your co-defendant can participate in a trial. A finding of fraud would render the plaintiff's claims against your co-defendant non-dischargeable and the plaintiff's lawyer should be considering filing an adversary action in the bankruptcy court or seeking relief from stay. Meanwhile, your lawyer needs to do whatever he/she can to postpone trial so your defense can be asserted.
