Court dismisses claim that a debtor assumed liability for a deceased co-debtor's debt after bankruptcy.

The court dismissed the plaintiff's claim that the debtor assumed liability for the deceased co-debtor's debt following bankruptcy proceedings. The plaintiff argued that the debtor should be held responsible for the co-debtor's obligations, while the defendant contended that the debt extinguished upon the co-debtor's death. The court ruled that the statutory framework for debt assumption does not apply to debts incurred by a deceased co-debtor after the debtor's own bankruptcy filing.
