In re Warren

Ruling
Dismissal was not warranted since the debtor completed the required credit counseling on the filing day before filing but needed an extension of time to file the certificate of counseling.
Procedural posture

A bankruptcy debtor obtained credit counseling as required by 11 U.S.C. § 109(h)(1) on the same day, but prior to the time, that the debtor filed his bankruptcy petition, but the debtor was unable to obtain a certificate of credit counseling until several weeks later. The debtor moved to enlarge the time for filing the certificate, and the trustee moved to dismiss the petition.
