Likely not. I read up on gift cards and bankruptcy laws on line (just some light reading...I wasn't studying it like a Harvard law major here or anything) and from what I understood each bankruptcy case was different but in every instance where gift cards were involved it was up to the bankruptcy judge to rule if gift cards could be used again or not. So, the much more likely story is this was tied up forever and a day in some court somewhere, which moves slow as molasses as it is.

But I guess my question is what if it was a regular we know had gift cards in the past but they didn't hang on to them? Can we do anything for them? Because I do know some regulars that may not have kept them.
