Is Restitution Listed as Income on Bankruptcy?
I have been paying criminal court-ordered restitution to someone for many, many years. That person filed for bankruptcy without listing his on-going civil case against me, as an asset. Also the person did not list the money I have been paying him, monthly, for many years, as income. I have paid him tens of thousands of dollars, including well over ten thousand dollars since he filed for bankruptcy. Some of the debts he is writing off in the bankruptcy are the medical bills the restitution was for. Should my payments be going to the Trustee, so the creditors can get the money they are supposed to be getting? I did something really stupid, many years ago, and I don't mind paying for it, but it doesn't seem right for me to reimburse someone for medical bills they aren't planning to pay. :confused:
