Why not just go cut a deal with the trustee regarding the division of
assets?  In other words, offer to purchase the assets your client wants
from the bankruptcy estate pursuant to Section 363(f).  This abates the
need for a state court trial and you don't have to negotiate a deal with
the ex-spouse.

If a state court magistrate holds a trial on division of assets, but
reserves the right for a final decree or makes a division between the
parties subject to the rights of a the estate is a pending the Joint
chapter 7 case, would that be a stay violation.
