In her own debts, Miller claimed to be in debt for over $3,000 for money she spent on costumes and a seamstress.
After nearly three years of bankruptcy proceedings, the court granted Miller a discharge from her Chapter 11 case.
But as RadarOnline.com previously reported, Miller pleaded "not guilty" to two counts of bankruptcy fraud, five counts of concealment of assets and 13 counts of making false bankruptcy declarations on Nov. 2.
If found guilty, Miller could face up to five years in prison and $5 million in fines.
