Debtor could not claim expense for support of dependent who was not elderly, chronically ill or disabled.
Procedural posture
The United States Trustee ("UST") moved to dismiss the debtor's chapter 7 case pursuant to 11 U.S.C. § 707(b) on the grounds that the filing constituted an abuse of the provisions of chapter 7. The chapter 7 trustee ("trustee") filed a response in which the trustee made no substantive argument in support of the motion but requested that the motion be granted only upon payment of the trustee's approved fees and expenses.
