MEMORANDUM AND ORDER
MERRITT S. DEITZ, Jr., Bankruptcy Judge.
As we unravel this dispute, David Sims, two years after his bankruptcy discharge, will painfully learn the need for precision in filling out a bankruptcy petition. Despite the discharge entered in July, 1981, this debtor will remain liable to Home Indemnity Company for unpaid insurance premiums totaling $1,841.29. Our explanation of this holding will be brief, but it does serve to reiterate an elementary principle of bankruptcy law: unscheduled debts are unaffected by a discharge under § 523(a)(3)(A) of the Bankruptcy Code.
