Almost never; Court ordered restitution and especially fines are NOT ablwe to be discharged in bankrutpcy. That would be against the "public good"...and frankly, one court doesn't like interferring or overriding another ever!
Bankruptcy doesn't "cover" anything. If you mean, can a criminal-court-ordered restitution be discharged so you don't have to pay it, probably not. Lawyers are trained to argue issues for their clients, so you might find a lawyer who can convince the bankruptcy court it should be discharged.
Fines in Illinois can not be claimed in bankruptcy if they are derived from criminal acts, parking tickets and traffic offenses. Additionally, court ordered fines and restitution will not be discharged under Chapter 7.
No bankruptcy will not protect you from wage garnishments for certain types of debt. For example, court ordered child support/past due child support, court ordered alimony/past due alimony,student loans, federal taxes,state taxes and county taxes are not covered under the protections of bankruptcy. Bankruptcy will also not protect you from wage garnisments for court ordered fines,restitution.
No.
The Judge ordered the rapist to pay restitution to his victim.Restitution is a form of payment that criminals pay to the victim, the victim's family, or to the government.Since prisoners earn less than minimum wage, they barely pay court ordered restitution.
Yes.
No. Penalties are not able to be discharged - although you must list them.
If a person is ordered to pay restitution and they die, the payment would come out of their estate, before any heirs are paid.Added: If you are asking about the decedent being the one to whom the restitution payment is due, then you would still owe it to their estate until it is paid in full.
Court ordered child support, spousal maintenance, federal or state taxes, a court ordered restitution for personal injury and/or property damage.
Your probation status has no bearing on it. If you are failing to obey the payment of a court ordered restitution, you are in contempt of court, and jailing you is certainly one of the options that the judge has.
No. It only protects you (financially speaking) from your creditors - NOT from the court. ALSO: Bankruptcy does not wipe out, or excuse, court ordered payments that were in effect prior to the bankruptcy filing.
