Jesse S | How long do you have to be a resident of Calif. to file bankruptcy? |

Adam is partially correct in his answer. It does get filed in Federal Court.
However, each state has laws governing bankruptcy for their state. You need to check ALL the rules for California, not just residency.
Here is one of the new rules regarding filing for Chapter 7
A new § 522(b)(3) specifies the state or local law governing the debtors’ exemption as the law of the place where the debtor’s domicile was located for 730 days before filing, and if the debtor did not maintain a domicile in a single state for that period, the governing exemption law is that of the place of the debtor’s domicile for the majority of the 180-day period preceding the 730 days before filing (that is, between 2 and 2- 1/2 years before the filing). If this new residency requirement would somehow render the debtor ineligible for any exemption, then the debtor is allowed to choose the federal exemptions. |

It doesn't matter. Bankruptcy gets filed in federal court, not state court. |
