In re Thomas (Case No. 16-50162)

Printer-friendly versionPrinter-friendly version

The Court denied the Bankruptcy Administrator's request to dismiss case with a permanent bar from refiling.  The Court nevertheless found that section 349 grants authority to bar a refiling for a period exceeding 180 days.  In light of the Debtor's history as a serial filer, her violation of prior orders of the Court, and her submission of false evidence to the Court (forged credit counseling certificate), the Court dismissed the Debtor's case with a one year bar from refiling a Chapter 13 petition.
