In re Mondragon

Ruling
Case dismissed for actual showing of substantial abuse despite prior stipulation that case was filed in good faith and did not raise presumption of abuse.
Procedural posture

Although it was stipulated that bankruptcy debtors'chapter 7 petition did not raise a presumption of abuse and that the debtors filed the petition in good faith, the U.S. Trustee moved to dismiss the petition under 11 U.S.C. § 707(b)(3) on the ground that the totality of the debtors'financial circumstances indicated an abuse of chapter 7 bankruptcy.
