The answer to your question all depends on when the taxes are from. Taxes are not automatically dischargeable in bankruptcy and so your attorney would have had to file an adversarial proceeding to determine the dischargeability of those taxes. They may be dischargeable now depending on the circumstances that they arose from. You need to consult with a bankrutptcy attorney to determine the answer because so many other facts go into the answer.
