A bankruptcy discharge releases a debtor from personal liability for certain types of debts. In other words, the debtor is no longer legally required to pay a debt that has been discharged.
The discharge is a permanent order that makes it illegal for creditors and debt collectors to take any action in an attempt to collect a debt that has been discharged. A creditor or debt collector who violates the bankruptcy discharge is subject to being fined by the bankruptcy court.
