What will be an ideal response?
Certain debts that are normally dischargeable, such as credit card debt, may become nondischargeable if the creditor can prove that the debtor obtained credit by way of fraud. In a denial of discharge, some action the debtor takes, whether innocent or fraudulent, may cause a particular debt or all debts to become nondischargeable prior to the conclusion of the bankruptcy case. The trustee may also, within one year of discharge or the closing of the case, request a revocation of discharge. A revocation of discharge cannot take effect against a debtor unless the debtor has an opportunity to be heard by the court.
