Can fraud be discharged from bankruptcy court if there was no intent to commit fraud?

Jeremy B Shephard
Answered by attorney Jeremy B Shephard (Unclaimed Profile)
Bankruptcy lawyer at David Andersen & Associates, PC
Debt alleged to have been fraudulent can be filed on in a bankruptcy; however, the creditor could file an adversary complaint (a lawsuit within the bankruptcy) to allege the debt was fraudulent and shouldn't be discharged (meaning you don't get rid of it). You'll want to talk to an experienced bankruptcy attorney about the particulars of your case.

Can you declare bankruptcy for a civil suit that wants a million dollars for crashing a friend’s car into their house?

Answered by attorney Paul Norwood Jonas Ross (Unclaimed Profile)
Bankruptcy lawyer at Paul N. J. Ross Law, PLLC
You can file bankruptcy on the debt. If you filed Ch 7 the creditor would have to file a nondischargeability action and it could very well be excepted from discharge depending on the circumstances. However, if you filed a Ch 13, then you would receive a discharge of the debt as well.

Can my late husband's debt affect my personal bank account?

Answered by attorney Gregory J Wald (Unclaimed Profile)
Bankruptcy lawyer at Gregory J. Wald
In order to freeze your account, your deposit account would have to be at the same bank that you owe money to, or the bank would have had to have sued you and obtained a judgment against you. You may or may not be liable on your husband's debt depending on the type of debt and whether it was joint or you signed a guaranty. From what you are saying, it sounds like bankruptcy might be a good option for you.
