In re Petit-Louis
Jun

2006
Ruling
Court upheld waiver of credit counseling since debtor could not find credit counseling in debtor's native language.
Procedural posture
The debtor, who spoke limited English, could not obtain the requisite prefiling credit counseling in Creole, nor could he afford to hire an interpreter. The yrustee moved for reconsideration of the court's order granting the debtor a waiver of the credit counseling required by 11 U.S.C. § 109(h)(1). At the hearing on the matter, after resting, the trustee moved to introduce affidavits into evidence.
