Discharge of debt means that a debtor is no longer legally liable to pay the debts that have been discharged in the bankruptcy procedure. However, not all kinds of debts are dischargeable and a debtor may still be legally liable to pay non-dischargeable debts. Additionally, a creditor cannot pursue discharged debts after the debtor's bankruptcy, but they can pursue nondischarged debts. Therefore, options A, B, and C are incorrect.
