Sec.  34.23  Bankruptcy.

    A debtor should notify STATE at the contact office provided in the 
original notice of the debt, if the debtor has filed for bankruptcy. 
STATE will require documentation from the applicable court indicating 
the date of filing and type of bankruptcy. Pursuant to the laws of 
bankruptcy, STATE will suspend debt collection upon such filing unless 
the automatic stay is no longer in effect or has been lifted. In 
general, collection of a debt discharged in bankruptcy shall be 
terminated unless otherwise provided for by bankruptcy law.
