No. Once you receive a discharge that means the debts listed in your bankruptcy are wiped out. You should contact the attorney that handled your bankruptcy for you.

I concur with my colleague Mr. Hoffman. The attorney that handled your case should know how to initiate legal proceeding in the bankruptcy court to stop this illegal lawsuit.

If you don't have any attorney, get one. Many debtor attorneys would be willing to handle this on a contingent fee basis.
