  • Such a discharge does not affect:
        1. A debt or duty to the United States; or
        2. A debt or duty to the state, for taxes or  for  money  received  or
      collected by any person as a public officer, or in a fiduciary capacity,
      or a cause of action specified in section sixty-three-c of the executive

        Except  as  prescribed  in  this section, the discharge exonerates the
