A recent Chapter 13 case was paid off early due to the
sale of the homestead. The debtors had two Judgment Debts
in the Civil Court which the Title Company is holding in
escrow. The Judgment debts were prior to the filing of
the Chapter 13 and were listed on the debtor's schedules,
but the creditors did not file a proof of claim. After
the sale of the home the Case was discharged.

Question: Since the creditors did not file a proof of
claim are these debts deemed dischargeable. The sale was
prior to the discharge. The cart before the horse
question. Can an Application of Satisfaction to the Civil
Court satisfy these claims through the discharge or does
the Title Company pay those claims? Any case law out
there??
