Can you claim a civil judgment debt on any type of bankruptcy?
It depends on what the civil judgment was for. For example, judgments for medical or credit card collections may normally be discharged by any chapter of bankruptcy. But, if for example the civil judgment was for damages caused from drinking and driving, or for an intentional tort, such as battery or conversion, (and yes I'm talking about the civil actions that may be brought by individuals for these acts, not the criminal acts which may be brought by the State), then the civil judgment may or may not be dischargeable by chapter 7, and filing chapter 13 may be more adviseable. You'd need to do some research or to speak to an attorney in your jurisdiction to know for sure. Please note that nothing in this posting or in any other posting constitutes legal advice; this is simply my understanding of the facts, which I do not warrant, and I am not suggesting any course of action or inaction to any person.

Can you get a criminal judgment after civil judgment?
Yes, it is possible to receive a criminal judgment after a civil judgment. Civil cases typically involve disputes between individuals or organizations, resulting in monetary damages or injunctions, while criminal cases are initiated by the government to address violations of criminal law. If the actions that led to the civil judgment also constituted a crime, law enforcement can pursue criminal charges regardless of the civil outcome. Therefore, the legal processes for civil and criminal cases are distinct and can occur independently of one another.
