If the bankruptcy is a Chapter 7, and the asset is not exempt, you cannot sell it. It is the property of the bankruptcy estate administered by the trustee. If the asset is exempt, you can sell it and keep the proceeds. If the asset sells for a lot more than you listed its value as, be prepared for a claim by the trustee.

If in a Chapter 13 and the Plan has been approved by the court, you are a debtor in possession and can sell assets with no problem, unless, as above, the asset turns out to have a significantly higher value than you listed.

Can judgments be discharged in bankruptcy?

Perhaps, many judgments can be discharged in bankruptcy. The ones which are allowable are determined by state and/or federal laws, depending on the type of bankruptcy chosen. Understanding that if it gets removed it is because it was included and settled/discharged as part of the BK, generally by using the asset it is secured to, or other assets...it isn't just file BK and the lien/debt goes away.


If you file a chapter 7 bankruptcy and disclose a pending lawsuit on your chapter 7. If the debt has been discharged can the trustee come back after the money 2 years later?

We are assuming you mean that YOU had a pending lawsuit against someone? if so, then the answer is likely yes. Disclosing it the suit is correct. If it is a viable suit then the bankruptcy trustee steps in your shoes and sues on your behalf and any money recovered goes to the benefit of your estate (your creditors) What likely happened is that the trustee identified the suit as an asset. If so, an asset bankruptcy case will not close (even though you got your discharge) until that asset has been administered. Standard disclaimer here. If you had an attorney, call her. This is a tricky area and you need to be aware of your rights and the rules. If the trustee did not think it was a valuable asset and abandoned that asset, then you may be able to keep the money. This is a big if. Contact your attorney. And follow and requests that the trustee has provided you.

Does a person paying crimina restitution criminal to a company continue to pay if the company goes bankrupt and no longer exists?

You will still owe the restitution to SOMEONE. In any bankruptcy there is a receiver who handles the apportionment of debts and assets. Your restitution payment would be considered an asset to the bankrupt company and, unless the bankruptcy court discharged your debt, you would probably have to continue to pay the full amount due.
