I was declared bankrupt on 11 may 2006. My aunt has just died and left me her estate. Is there any way in which I can avoid handing over to my agent? Thank you

Talk to the attorney that handled your bankruptcy.

Let me see, don't take this wrong, you legally owe a bunch of people a lot of money, now you have gotten money and don't want to have to pay them the money you owe them and want a way out of it ?

Is that prettty much what we are saying.

Legally you have to report any change of income or money received, that was part of the paper work you signed when you filed for your bankrutpcy.

When you have no money and can't pay, bankruptcy is a legal way to get a fresh start, when you have the money and just don't want to pay it on your debts that is fraud.

Sorry got off the legal aspect onto the moral aspect, it's a collar thing this morning
