Yes, even if you have been sued and a creditor has a judgment against you, a Bankruptcy will wipe the debt out. However, if you own a home, it is possible that the judgment is tied to your home like a mortgage is. If you own a home, check your local land recorder’s office to see if a judgment lien is against your home. If a lien is against your home, it is sometimes possible to remove this lien.
