Bankr. No.:
87-40209
Chapter:
11
Date of Decision:
November 8, 1996
Issue:
Whether a closed Chapter 11 case should be reopened to allow Debtor to get clarification on prior orders or to allow a creditor to bring a motion to dismiss?
Ruling:
The case was reopened only to allow the Court to interpret its prior orders. The confirmed plan contemplated such action and it was within the Court's statutory post-confirmation jurisdiction. The case was not reopened to allow the creditor to file a motion to dismissal or convert. Dismissal or conversion would not reinstate creditors to their pre-petition status nor revoke Debtor's discharge.
