YES. You can discharge the judgment your landlord obtained against you for past due rent.

Most debts can be discharged in a Chapter 7 case. They typically include credit card debt, deficiency judgments, personal loans, medical debt, and obligations for past rent when you do not plan to continue the landlord-tenant relationship.
