This woman filed for bankruptcy. Unfortunately, she just happened to “accidentally forget” about the $200,000 piece of real estate that she sold to her father for $1.00 the day before filing her Chapter 7 bankruptcy petition. When she got to the courthouse, she found herself being ripped apart by the federal trustee for bankruptcy fraud. So, believing that she just needed to “explain herself” to the judge, she decided to take the stand in her own defense.
The line of questioning went as follows:
Q: “Do you know that bankruptcy fraud is a felony?”
A: “Yes I do.”
Q: “Have you ever previously been convicted a felony?”
A: “Yes I have.”
Q: “How many times have you been convicted of a felony?”
A: “I have been convicted three times.” She then stopped and pondered for about two seconds before continuing: “And this will be four!”
Guess what? It was.
