Ordinarily unsecured loans ( such as private student loans ) are fully dischargeable in bankruptcy. The Bankruptcy Code provides three exceptions relating to educational obligations 1.11 U.S.C. 523 ( 8 ) ( A ) ( i ) ; 2. 11 U.S.C. 523 ( 8 ) ( A ) ( ii ) ; or 3. RS Code 221 ( d ) ( 1 ). See 11 U.S.C. 523 ( 8 ) ( B ). These loans did not mean any of these exceptions.

The lenders had the initial burden to prove that the loan is a qualified education loan that is excepted from discharge. They did nothing but allow the loans to become dormant and barred.

The lenders held to 523 saying it is a educational benefit, I did not receive the benefit based on IRS publication,901. Only one person or marital status can claim the 1098 T when they file.

The Supreme Court in XXXX v. XXXX, XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX ( XXXX ), has ruled that if a lender has knowledge of a bankruptcy discharge and takes intentional actions believing that the discharge does not apply to its actions, then the lender is in contempt if there is no fair ground of doubt as to whether the order barred the creditors conduct. In other words, civil contempt may be appropriate if there is no objectively reasonable basis for concluding that the creditors conduct might be lawful. 
XXXX XXXX charged of the deb and sold to another lender/ t collectors debt buyers may claim they are not covered by the discharge order and have no knowledge of the order. The creditor should be in contempt for selling a discharged debt or for hiring a collector to collect on a discharged debt.

Every circuit ruling on the issue llow for Fair Debt Collection Practices Act ( FDCPA ) claims for violation of the bankruptcy discharge. See NCLCs Fair Debt Collection 13.7.2 Debt buyers purchasing private student loan notes can not claim holder-in-due-course status to avoid the consumers defenses against the originating lender. The very inclusion of the FTC Holder Notice and the fact that the debt buyer purchased the note after the consumers default are two of the potential grounds that defeat holder-in-due-course status. See NCLCs Mortgage Lending 10.7.
