A bankruptcy discharge is the process of releasing a debtor from personal liability for certain specified debts. When a bankruptcy discharge occurs, a debtor is no longer legally required to pay any debts that are discharged, and creditors are prohibited from taking any collection action. Requirements for a bankruptcy discharge include the debtor completing a two-hour financial education course from a course provider approved by the Department of Justice, U.S. Trustees office.
