In re Meyn

Ruling
Abuse of chapter 7 was found where the debtor inflated expenses, failed to disclose certain interests and prepetition expenditures, and had sufficient disposable income for a meaningful chapter 13 plan.
Procedural posture

Movant trustee sought to dismiss the chapter 7 case of respondent debtor pursuant to 11 U.S.C. § 707(b) or alternatively to dismiss the debtor's case under section 707(a) for "cause." The debtor's chapter 13 case had been previously dismissed for failure to confirm a plan.
