A Chapter 7 discharge does not eliminate child support & spousal maintenance (alimony),student loans(unless repayment would likely cause undue hardship), it does not eliminate debts resulting from DUI or DWI; nor debts not dischargeable in a previous bankruptcy because of fraud, certain federal, state, and local taxes, restitution, fines, or penalties. Also debts not listed or omitted from the petition can remain in force after discharge.
