I'm not clear here.
In 2008, I recvd severance of $160k. That would be from your former employer.
My employer went bankrupt. (In what year?) Big deal. You already had your money.
the court sued me for $160k. Was "the court" your former employer?
In 2019 I repaid $16k. This is where I'm lost. If your former employer has been non-existent for years, how can you "pay back" anything to them if they're no longer in business? As it stands now, I do not see this as a repayment of anything. Most likely it's because you've not provided enough facts and information to work with here. You can't "pay back" wages to an employer that went out of business. Can you see my conundrum here?
