Joint bankruptcy with a single Chapter 7 on record?

I filed for Chapter 7 bankruptcy in 2005 and we did not include the house. Now my wife & I will be getting a divorce. Is it possible to file a Joint Bankruptcy when it has been only 4 years since I filed myself? We’re in Tennessee if that matters.
Sorry, I couldn’t remember the word "re-affrimed" when I was typing my original question. I did re-affirm the house during the Chapter 7 filing.

How much equity am I allowed to keep when selling my house if I file bankruptcy?

I am getting a divorce. The mortgage on my house is in my name only. The title is actually in both names. My soon to be Ex-Husband still lives here, he is refusing to pay the house payment. He wants them to foreclose on me. I want to sell the house and use the equity to pay off some debt. The total equity after selling the house would be about ,000. We have a total of other assets of ,000. The total assets we have are 0,000. The total debt owed is ,000. The equity and debt are supposed to be split 50/50, so 50% of the total equity left would be ,000. If I file bankruptcy would I be able to keep a portion of the 33,000 to hopefully have for deposits on a new home to rent, or such? My soon to be Ex-Husband would not be filing for bankruptcy. How would all this affect him?
