United States Fourth Circuit

The district court's order affirming the bankruptcy court's finding of fraud and entry of a non-dischargeable judgment for plaintiff is affirmed, where: 1) the bankruptcy court did not clearly err in finding that plaintiff justifiably relied on defendant's fraudulent misrepresentations, and thereby suffered proven damages; and 2) the bankruptcy court did not err in determining that the judgment debt was non-dischargeable under 11 U.S.C. section 523(a)(2)(A), which disallows the discharge of a debt obtained by fraud.
