well it's perjury lying on oath. if that is what she has done.  we all know what happened to Jeffrey Archer for that

it all depends on when her bankruptcy order was made if it was seven years ago then she should have been discharged from bankruptcy in 2001 however if she didn't cooperate with the trustee he could have suspended her discharge so technically she would still be bankrupt, alternatively if she had been made bankrupt twice before she would be bankrupt for 7 years. under the enterprise act the law changed limiting the duration of first time bankruptcies to a maximum of one year in practise most people with low income no assets gain their discharge within 4 - 6 months however 2nd time bankrutpcies are still 5 years and third time bankruptcies are seven years. 

lying to a district judge isn't really that bad people do it all the time technically she could go to prison but if it.s only a little white lie they probably wouldn't bother or at worst fine her 50 or so pounds. the best thing for you to do is to visit the insolvency service website and search to see if she is bankrupt. if she is then it will show you details of her trustee. you may wish to contact her trustee and inform him that she has �3500 worth of goods that he might like to realise and also that she has obtained further credit whilst a bankrupt.this is an offence as it's more than the stipulated set minimum and she could go to prison for that.
