hiding money

Is it unlawful if someone files for bankruptcy and after discharge, following the 9 month period, receives funds that were being held by a family member. In this particular case it was an inheritance with the funds being controlled by a sibling. These funds were never declared by the bankrupt and are now being received and spent by them.

If this person filed for bankruptcy and knew these monies were going to be come available and failed to tell their trustee this could be a reason for which the court could overturn a discharge.
