You obviously can't discharge criminal restitution in bankruptcy. You can discharge civil judgements in most cases, but intentional fraud can be non-dischargable if the creditor files a adversary proceeding. I guess if they won the criminal case they would have a much better chance of arguing to the bankruptcy court that it wasn't intentional fraud.
