California Bankruptcy Discharge Violations

Once your debt has been discharged through bankruptcy, you are no longer legally obligated to pay for those debts. This is the essential premise of bankruptcy - the chance to start over, unencumbered by old debts and financial responsibilities. When creditors whose debts have been discharged attempt to collect on those debts, it is directly counter to California's bankruptcy laws, and you may be entitled to recover damages in excess of the amount you originally owed.

Any demand or request for payment from a creditor once the debt has been discharged is considered a violation of the bankruptcy discharge law. Creditors are automatically notified of a bankruptcy discharge, and when this discharge applies to any of their accounts. Therefore, if you receive a communication requesting payment after the bankruptcy discharge date, you may be entitled to recover damages.

Bankruptcy discharge violations should never be taken lightly. If a creditor continues to pursue collection activities, it could cause additional problems for your credit and financial stability.
