    I think he’s still in bankruptcy. From my understanding the bankruptcy trustee takes control over these kinds of things and it’s probably stayed right now anyway. Ultimately it will go on the pile with all the other liabilities where most or all will probably be discharged.

    Good or bad, bankruptcy law doesn’t allow the trustee to touch income and expenses that are considered reasonable given your location. There is some standard calculator for all of that but I think the bankrupt can also lobby to keep control of various things, especially if it’s directly related to their earning capabilities.

    Bankruptcy is designed to get people who are otherwise fucked back to a workable position. Even scumbags find themselves fucked and need some help sometimes, lol.
