Almost any debt that you owe when you file a Chapter 13 Bankruptcy or a Chapter 7 Bankruptcy can get discharged in a Florida bankruptcy. There are a few exceptions for debt that cannot be discharged. The most common examples of non-dischargeable debts are student loans, federal and state taxes, some government fines, alimony, child support, etc. A personal loan is dischargeable unless it is secured by collateral. In other words, if you secured the loan with your house or car or other item, then you must either pay the debt or surrender the item. If the price of the item does not cover the full debt, the deficiency amount would still be discharged. However, if the personal loan is unsecured, it can be totally dis-chargeable.
