Bankr. No.:
87-10311
Chapter:

July 19, 1991
Issue:
Whether the debtor properly invoked his Fifth Amendment privilege against self-incrimination in response to an order for a 2004 examination and a request for production of documents?
Ruling:
No. The debtor did not properly invoke his privilege because he made a blanket assertion against answering any question and producing any document and thus he failed to establish any such communication would be compelled, testimonial, and incriminating.
