They can't renew the judgment if you file bankruptcy. That would be considered harassment and they could be found in contempt by the bankruptcy court.

Generally, a person is not liable on a credit card where they are an authorized signer. However, using a credit card of a deceased person may be considered fraud. In either case, you can't discharge the debt in bankruptcy.

Well, talk about a question that is as clear as mud. Did you inherit the house from your mother or did you inherit it from someone else? Do you inherit the house through probate or because your name was on the title as a joint or co-owner? How long ago did your mother file bankruptcy? Was it chapter 7 or chapter 13? Was the bankruptcy completed by a discharge order? Or was the bankruptcy still open and pending? All this questions are crucial to get an accurate answer to your question. I am not a Magic 8 ball that gives you answers randomly that say nothing.
