The Threat to Declare bankruptcy or Quit His Job (Usually By the Husband) Some spouses, typically husbands, declare that they'll quit their jobs and leave the wife destitute. Or, they declare that they'll file for bankruptcy. In most cases, you can relax. Spouses rarely carry through on those threats -- they have too much to lose themselves. On the other hand, if your spouse continues to have this attitude, your case will be more expensive (for both of you) than it has to be. Some judges will penalize this behavior by awarding more property to the cooperative spouse. And, should worst come to worst, it may be comforting to know that child support and alimony obligations do not go away, even if your spouse does declare bankruptcy.
