Date of Decision:
January 21, 2004
Issue:
Whether Plaintiff was entitled to summary judgment on her complaint objecting to Debtor’s discharge pursuant to 11 U.S.C. § 727(a)(4)?
Ruling:
Plaintiff was entitled to summary judgment since Debtor failed to advance specific facts to create a genuine issue of material fact for trial and Plaintiff was entitled to judgment as a matter of law. Debtor’s misstatements and omissions in his schedules and statement of financial affairs constituted a pattern of reckless disregard for the accuracy of his schedules sufficient to warrant the Court’s denying Debtor’s discharge under 11 U.S.C. § 727(a)(4).
