The jailing would last until Patso completes the Debtor's Exam. That means Nikki will have to bring all the requested documents (as listed in the summons to the debtor's exam) to Patso in Jail. There will be a neutral officer of the court, a commissioner or even Sosnay himself, presiding. If Nikki drags her flabby flat ass, Sosnay is likely to start imposing daily fines. Most likely scenario is Pat is jailed over the week-end and the exam will be Monday the 28th at the soonest. Labor Day weekend is the next weekend. If Piggy cannot get it done by 1 September he'll spend an extended week-end in jail until the 5th.
A bankruptcy affects them both. They will have to list their assets, including Nikki's CD collection, for the trustee who will sell them off and use the money to pay the creditors, and Quasi, a secured creditor, will be at the front of that line. It seems Quasi may get paid quicker if Patso and his slattern go Chapter 7. The Robinson-Tomlinson household will have no control over the trustee's payment decisions. This is my understanding of the process, but, pardon the PL, I've never been bankrupt. Patso's bankruptcy would be nothing like DSP's. Patso does not have pigroach luck.
