RATLIFF, Judge.

STATEMENT OF THE CASE

Liberty National Bank and Trust Company ("Liberty") appeals from a judgment in favor of James R. Payton in an action regarding the payment of a debt. We affirm.

ISSUES

We restate the issues as follows:

1. Did the trial court err in finding adequate proof of Payton's bankruptcy court discharge?

2. Was the March 24, 1989 loan ("1989 Loan") a new debt created post-bankruptcy supported by sufficient consideration or a reaffirmation of a debt incurred pre-bank-ruptey?

8. Was Payton equitably estopped from denying liability under the 1989 Loan?
