Beacher v. Pena (In re Beacher)

Beacher v. Pena (In re Beacher)

Ruling
Filing of Form B22A not required where debts are not primarily consumer debts.
Procedural posture

Chapter 7 bankruptcy debtors moved to excuse filing a Form B22A calculation to determine whether a presumption of abuse arose, and other chapter 7 debtors in a separate case moved to vacate a dismissal of their case for failing to file a timely Form B22A. All of the debtors asserted that the requirement to file Form B22A did not apply since their debt was not primarily consumer debt, and the bankruptcy courts conducted a joint hearing.
