• holding that debtors could not evince a lack of knowledge of their personal injury claim based on confusion as to the limitations period
• stating that plaintiffs negligent nondisclosure did not prevent judicial estoppel or create a fact issue
• noting that with Assets of $1,004,177, the Acunas “could have paid off all their liabilities” of $214,561
• stating that plaintiff = s negligent nondisclosure did not prevent judicial estoppel or create a fact issue
• noting that judicial estoppel is invoked when “intentional self- contradiction is being used as a means of obtaining unfair advantage in a forum provided for suitors seeking justice”
• applying judicial estoppel because “omission of the personal injury claim from their mandatory bankruptcy filings is tantamount to a representation that no such claim existed.”
