If you receive an inheritance during bankruptcy the money, irrespective of the amount, will be used as follows:

1. To pay the cost of administration (the trustee);

2. To pay the creditors. The most your creditors could get would be payment in full plus 5% interest; and

3. Anything left would be returned to the debtor upon confirmaiton that all previous payments had successfully cleared the bank.
