This episode of MACREADS.COM covers the United States Supreme Court's February 22, 2023, opinion in Bartenwerfer v. Buckley.
Summary: Homebuyer obtained a judgment against sellers for failing to disclose material defect in the home. One of the sellers sought to discharge the judgment in Chapter 7 bankruptcy proceedings because she did not know about the defect. SCOTUS held that the judgment could not be discharged because a bankruptcy debtor can be held liable for a third party's fraud regardless of her own culpability.
