(Bankr. W.D. Ky. Aug. 20, 2015)
The bankruptcy court holds that the creditor may not proceed with a damages hearing in state court, as the liability judgment has already been discharged in the bankruptcy. The creditor requests that the court allow her to challenge the dischargeability of the debt, despite the fact that the deadline for filing complaints to determine dischargeability has already passed.
