I learned something today. I didn't know judicial liens don't go away in bankruptcy. I thought it was only student loans.
Not necessarily in general, but intentional torts don't discharge in bankruptcy. The defamation in this case is an intentional tort. Liens can be "avoided" in bankruptcy.
PULL reacts to the Todd revelation some more. I like the confusion over the merits and cause of the lawsuit.
Are they actually trying to be stupid? Defamation doesn't necessarily require specifically identifying a person if the recipient of the defamatory communication could identify who was meant by the communication. Haberkorn felt it was imminent that he would be identified, perhaps from having been the only person the accusation could be about.
It would be up to a jury to decide whether the defamation was obviously about him.
