§1328 Chapter 13 Discharge in Nevada

How 11 U.S.C. § 1328 applies in Nevada — federal bankruptcy law, Nevada district data.

What §1328 Chapter 13 Discharge Does

Completion of all Chapter 13 plan payments results in a discharge under §1328(a) — broader than §727 Chapter 7 discharge. This is the "super-discharge": it covers some debts Chapter 7 does not (like willful/malicious property damage). §1328(b) provides a narrow "hardship discharge" for debtors who cannot complete their plan.
