How courts have described this case

Verbatim parenthetical descriptions written by other courts when citing this decision. Ranked by citation-network relevance.

  • “[Revocation of discharge is an extraordinary remedy [and] is a penalty . . . not lightly invoked by the [c]ourt”
  • “In some extreme circumstances, where bad faith is found, more than ‘mere’ dismissal is appropriate.”
  • “Courts . . . have generally agreed . . . that there is no absolute prohibition against the filing of a Chapter 13 petition while another bankruptcy case remains pending.” (collecting cases)
  • “Utilization of Chapter 13 to successfully circumvent the penalty imposed upon Debtors for their inappropriate conduct in a prior bankruptcy case is not just irony. It would instead portray the law as nonsense.”
