I've just been serve with a lawsuit about a credit card debt that I've stop payment since 9/2004. I live in Texas. I did own the card about 16,000. Now that the collection agency said that I owned 46,000. I've not made enough to live on since then. What can they go after? I have a house the co-sign with my sister name on it and been file homestead exemption. Please advice. Can I file bankruptcy now? Thanks.
