Now what kind of creative solution might a judge ordering that liquidation use to deal with that…
I wonder if it’d be workable to fine anyone involved some periodic amount, individually of course. How long do you suppose they would keep supporting him. One thing to have convinced a bunch of low info persons to shout your praises, asking them to bankroll your protest is another.
Oh indeed it is, was my daily work filing papers in cases for about 6 years. The usual deal being to list all assets and all liabilities and it’s assumed that everything is subject to discharge, but a stack of exceptions allow creditors to object and prevent their claims from being included. One exception I recall but rarely saw was judgements arising out of fraud or malicious actions.
Sanctions always are a tool just for annoying the judge, who can really do whatever they want withing the bounds of law. Enforcing them on random 3rd parties might be difficult, but if they’re impeding the court’s work well, judges don’t take contempt actions very well typically.
