[CLBS] Student Loan Issue

[Savi Grewal]

Dear List mates:

 

I am looking for some help with a Student loan issue.

 

Debtor and ex-wife both had student loans.  During their  marriage they
consolidated their student loan.  As part of their divorce
settlement/judgment ex-wife was assigned all of the student loan debt.  She
is behind in her student loan payments and the lender is asking the debtor
for payments and threatening to garnish wages.  Obviously, the lender cannot
garnish during the pendency of the bankruptcy.  Debtor and his current wife
have filed bankruptcy. Is there any way to discharge this student loan debt?
Is there a solution in bankruptcy which can help the debtor to avoid any
obligation on the student loans?   Will I need an adversary against the
ex-wife?  Any and all suggestions are welcomed and appreciated.  Thank you.
