Re: Disallowing certain entities
debts owed for receipt of overpayment of welfare and unemployment benefits should be dischargeable in bankruptcy as long as they were not obtained through fraud and as long as the governmental entity does not have a valid lien against any property of the debtor. I have not fully researched this issue, but this is my preliminary finding.
