I think you will need permission from the court in order to sell your shares post filing.

Maybe, but probably not. You are apparently in Wisconsin, and you refer to “a court order amount.”
If by this you mean a judgment, then the rate is set by Wisconsin statutes. The judgment interest rate applicable to civil actions is 1% plus the prime interest rate in effect on January... View More

You live in Wisconsin, and it is a community property state. As a result, you probably have a different set of exemptions.
Here in Florida that IRA might be exempt, but you need to talk to a lawyer local to you to figure out your situation.

Possibly, depending on the exemptions you have left over and depending on whether you use federal or state.
My fiances ex is filing for bankruptcy so she says. The child needs braces and 2 cavities filled and she is stating she will not be paying for them since she cant afford it. They have a court order that they both have to cover 50% of medical and dental cost. Is there something we can do about this?... View More

Probably since they are in bankruptcy, no one will pursue it although the bankruptcy trustee could pursue it if he so chose.
