It sounds like you have entered into a series of transactions, with creditors, parents and others that may all come in to play here. There is no way to provide specific advice without more information. I recommend that you contact a bankruptcy attorney.

What can I do if the soverign bank collected on my discharged debt for those years?

Pamela L. Stewart
Answered by attorney Pamela L. Stewart (Unclaimed Profile)
Bankruptcy lawyer at Pamela L. Stewart, Attorney at Law
It's not so simple. Was the "over $100,000.00" you paid to the bank paid before you surrendered the home? If so, the bank can consider it "rent" or a payment in lieu of posting the property for foreclosure. Also, if you paid the monies prior to 2008, you don't have a cause of action as the statute of limitations has expired. Did you voluntarily give the bank money? If so, and you continued to live in the property, I don't believe you will find a judge that would order the bank to refund the money to you.

Can bankruptcy end a civil debt?

Answered by attorney Marjorie A. Guymon

It depends. 11 U.S.C. 523(a)(6) does not discharge debts incurred through willful and malicious injury to another or another's property. 11 U.S.C. 523(a)(9) does not discharge debts incurred for death or personal injury caused by operation of a motor vehicle if unlawful because of intoxication. Also, most restitution is nondischargeable.
