Getting rid of a lawsuit in bankruptcy depends on a few factors. One of the main factors includes determining if the liability associated with it is dischargeable. Sometimes a debtor may receive a lawsuit or learn of being sued and ignore it. This can turn into a default judgment giving creditors an upper hand on taking more legal action against you, such as a lien or wage garnishment. In understanding whether the lawsuit can be discharged, you need to get clarity on the type of debt liability attached to the suit.
