Giudices in More Trouble over Bankruptcy Filing

This week, multiple news sources are stating that Teresa Giudice (of the Housewives of New Jersey) and her husband Joe are in a lot of trouble.  Earlier this year, the couple filed for bankruptcy and were later accused of hiding major assets from the United States Bankruptcy Court.

Last week Thursday, but couple's U.S. Trustee Roberta A. DeAngelis, filed a Complaint Objecting to Discharge.  But trustee is asking that Judge Morris Stern refused to grant the couple Chapter 7 bankruptcy due to the omissions in false information included in their filing.

DeAngelis says the couple filed statements and schedules that they knew were incorrect.  He said they made false statements under oath regarding their assets and claims the couple gave the bankruptcy court false income tax returns.

For example, paperwork filed by the couple did not include the $250,000 contract Teresa signed for her recent book one week before filing for bankruptcy.  It is also alleged the couple did not disclose Joe's bank account, properties and their vehicles.
