Student Loan
Denial of Discharge
Where a debtor challenged the denial of her request for discharge of her student loan obligations to the government, the judgment is affirmed because the bankruptcy court properly applied the totality-of-the-circumstances standard and properly held that the debtor failed to meet her burden of proving an undue hardship. Judgment is affirmed.
