Bankruptcy is a Federal matter. All BK courts are Federal Circuit Courts. They are named for the area they generally service...like US Federal Bankruptcy Court for the District of Northern Arizona....or such.
To facilitate handling of cases, the Courts tend to interpret certain areas of the Law as best fits their regions...as in Community Property states compared to ones that aren't, what is the definition of real estate, that type of thing. But the BK laws are really the same anywhere in the country.
