Casey Anthony Receives Discharge of Most of Her Debts

Submitted by webadmin on

Casey Anthony will not have to pay most of the thousands of dollars of debts listed in her bankruptcy case, a judge ruled on Tuesday, the Orlando Sentinel reported yesterday. The ruling from Bankruptcy Judge K. Rodney May does not close Anthony's case and does not determine how much money, if any, will be paid to her creditors. Anthony filed for bankruptcy in January, listing more than $792,000 in debts. She owed the most money to Jose Baez, the defense attorney who represented her during her high-profile murder trial. Tuesday's bankruptcy discharge order eliminates Anthony's legal obligation to pay most, but not all, debts listed in her case.
