Cosigner for car loan, Primary files bankruptcy.
My wife co-signed for car, and the
primary borrower filed bankruptcy.
My wife had moved and only received
notice through the IRS by means of a
1099C for the remaining debt after
car was sold. What laws are there
concerning her liability if she received
no notice. The company has stated
that they no longer have a copy of
the notice letter, but it's noted in
their files that they sent one to a
former address. The amount owed is
around 4400, and I'm wondering
what is the best route legally to take.

Your wife owes the money. Her reecourses are to pay it, work out a deal with the lender, or go bankrupt. It is always a bad idea to cosign loans, and one should only do it with the expectation that one will pay.
