In re Donald Albert Hausle

Bankr. No.: 
04-50015
Chapter: 
7
Date of Decision: 
June 10, 2004
Issue: 
Whether the United States Trustee was entitled to summary judgment on his motion to dismiss Debtor’s chapter 7 case for substantial abuse?
Ruling: 
The United States Trustee was entitled to summary judgment. Using Debtor’s figures, the Court found Debtor had the ability to pay his unsecured creditors $18,798.36 over a three-year period or $35,903.40 over a five-year period and that either figure represented a substantial portion of Debtor’s total unsecured debt of $105,709.73. Thus, the Court concluded Debtor had the substantial ability to pay his creditors.
