It was treated as a no asset case. 815 Lakey,Denton,TN was not scheduled as propem. They claimed their homestead in Corinth as homestead. It looks like Nyasa has now also moved to an apartment. The result of the bankruptcy was discharging over S260,000 in student debt_ Their attorney*was Men- i�'aaee. He is deceased note. His office was bulldozed to make way for the new,improved I-35E project recently. My opinion is that nothing stands in your way_ This property is not protected by the bankruptcy. It did appear in the Statement of Affairs that there was a suit involving the DISD,et al and some secured creditors. Apparently that is the suit that is hanging fire now.
