Legal Question

Is a ''Punitive Damage'' court rulling discharable with bankruptcy ?

If you lose a civil case, and get a judgement of a amount of money againest you, is that discharable through bankruptcy ? If there is a punitive damage judgement in addition, is that discharable with bankruptcy also ?

Thank You,
