Casey Anthony won't have to pay most of debts

Casey Anthony will not have to pay most of the thousands of dollars of debts listed in her bankruptcy case, a judge ruled Tuesday.

The ruling from U.S. Bankruptcy Judge K. Rodney May does not close Anthony's case and does not determine how much money, if any, will be paid to her creditors.

Anthony filed for bankruptcy in January, listing more than $792,000 in debts. She owed the most money to Jose Baez, the defense attorney who represented her during her high-profile murder trial.

Tuesday's bankruptcy discharge order eliminates Anthony's legal obligation to pay most, but not all, debts listed in her case.

Why is this even a story. Many put in for bankrupscy every year. Casey Anthony is doing what many others have done before her. She was acquitted of any wrong doing is probably why this is a story. Regardless of people opinion of Casey Anthony and guilty or innocence, one thing I give her is that she has been quiet and out of the spotlight for quite a while unlike Zimmerman who seems to flaunt his "freedom". I would take Casey Anthony over Zimmerman any day of the week due to her behavior since the hearing.

This has to be a bad day for Tim Miller and Texas Equusearch. Hope he still has options to pursue.
