If I file for bankruptcy in Florida can I discharge or wipeout my back owed child support?

November 9th, 2011

One of the most common questions people want to know, when filing for bankruptcy, is what type of debts are dischargeable. While most debts are dischargeable in bankruptcy there are several types of debts that are non-dischargeable. A debtor will not be able to discharge back-owed child support in bankruptcy.
