Supreme Court rules 9-0 that bankruptcy filers can't avoid debt incurred by another's fraud

Kate Bartenwerfer's was factitiously quoted as saying, "It was split along ideological lines!"

When it was pointed out that it was a unanimous ruling of the court, she hypothetically responded, "It's a ruling by an activist court because I don't agree with the verdict!!"

I guess the hard lesson for the wife is that there is no such thing as a silent partner when it comes to fraud. If your name is on the signature line, then you need to understand that you have full liability.

Choose your partner's wisely or, you know, consequences...
