It isn't. Karl was ordered to pay Billy's lawyer's fee, it was ~$650,000 AUD.
The sum total that the bankruptcy trustee was able to get out of Karl to pay off his debts was $224,000 from selling his equity in his house. Of that ~$50,000 is going to the bankruptcy trustee for their fees. Karl also had ~$100,000 of other unrelated existing debt, which some of the remaining ~$170,000 will go to. That leaves approximately ~$150,000 that's going to Billy.
650,000 - 150,000 = Billy is in the hole ~$500,000 AUD.
