What is bankruptcy discharge order?


The bankruptcy discharge order is an order issued by the court judge and it permanently prohibits creditors from taking action to collect dischargeable / discharged debts against the debtor personally;  this does not prevent secured creditors from seizing collateral if payments are not kept up, or other creditors from pursuing property of the estate.

The granting of a discharge does not automatically result in the closing of a case.  All contested matters, adversary proceedings, and appeals must be resolved and the appointed trustee or debtor-in-possession must file a final report and account and request entry of a final decree before the Clerk's Office will close the case.
