She can reaffirm the obligation and you'll be OK. Just make sure you are current. There may be some explaining that you have to do to the judge for him to approve the reaffirmation.

How does legal separation pertain to community property laws when only one owner filed for chapter 7?

First things first: consult a skilled bankruptcy lawyer in your locality. Second, regardless of the legal separation, you are entitled to either the federal or the state homestead exemption (in some states you must choose only the state exemptions). In Wisconsin, each spouse gets a $75,000 homestead exemption. So...if you file separately (and live in Wisconsin) , your equity is entirely exempt. So is hers.

If a creditor has a security interest in the collateral you have 3 choices. One, you can return it and owe nothing. Two, you can redeem it by paying the value of it, in cash and in full. Three, you can enter into a reaffirmation agreement to pay the balance in monthly payments. If you no longer have possession of the collateral you can tell them where it is so they can pick it up.
