    Appellant’s Reply Brief

    Filed December 31, 2013

    Thus, to establish re- spondent's culpability for the charged section 6106 violations, the State Bar need only prove that he in- curred these $19,327 in credit card debts without intending to repay them. Unlike Bank One andFirst Card who were required to prove the five elements of common law fraud to obtain a judgment declar- ing that respondent's debts to them are nondis- chargeable under section 523(a)(2)(A), the State Baris not required to establish each ofthe five ele- ments of common law fraud to establish the charged violations of section 6106. After he weighedall the evidence, the hearing judge was “‘clearly convinced that Respondent bor- rowed without an intent to repay the money, which is an act of dishonesty.”

    Memorandum Decision/Opinion and Order

    Filed April 16, 2020

    For these reasons, the Court finds and concludes that the debt that Brent seeks to collect had been discharged in 2010 by operation of law under In re Parker. With that being said, the Court makes no findings or determinations if the debt could be non-dischargeable under § 523(a). If Brent wishes to have the Court make a determination as to the underlying debt being non- dischargeable, then that must only be done through an adversary proceeding.
