Vyshedsky v. Soliman (In re Soliman)

How courts have described this case

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

• noting that unless issue preclusion bars its assertion, “a debt- or may raise self-defense as an affirmative defense to a non-dischargeability claim”
• finding that the debtor’s claim of self-defense in biting plaintiff’s nose amounts to an admission of willfulness
• rejecting the debtor’s claim of self-defense, finding instead that the debtor was responsible for putting himself in the situation and could have avoided any confrontation by retreating
• finding act of biting to not be a enable act of self-defense
• “Since New York recognizes self-defense as a possible defense to a criminal assault charge, a guilty plea precludes a criminal defendant from later asserting self-defense in a civil assault case, or as here, as a defense to a denial of discharge”
• examining self-defense under federal common law and New York law
