Understanding Bankruptcy Fraud Allegations
Bankruptcy fraud cases can arise in two primary forms:
Adversary Proceedings in Bankruptcy Court
In many cases, a creditor initiates a lawsuit within the bankruptcy process—known as an adversary proceeding—claiming that a specific debt should not be discharged due to fraud, false representation, or the concealment or transfer of assets. These cases are governed by the Federal Rules of Evidence and Federal Rules of Civil Procedure and are litigated before a bankruptcy judge.Federal Criminal Charges
More serious allegations involve being federally prosecuted for bankruptcy fraud—such as transferring property to third parties or failing to disclose other assets—which can result in felony convictions, long-term imprisonment (often up to five years), and life-altering consequences. Bankruptcy fraud is a serious crime with severe penalties. It is also a form of white collar crime involving financial deception.
Overwhelming debts can sometimes lead to allegations of bankruptcy fraud, especially when individuals or businesses are under significant financial distress.
These charges often overlap with other federal crimes and frauds like:
- Wire fraud
- Mail fraud
- Money laundering
- Health care fraud
- Insurance fraud
- Securities fraud
- Identity theft
- Tax filings fraud
