Jun
25
2012
Ruling
Bankruptcy court did not abuse discretion in denying debtors' motion to convert to chapter 11 due to untruths.
Procedural posture
Appellant chapter 7 debtors sought review of a judgment from the United States Bankruptcy Court for the District of Nevada, which granted their motion to reopen their case but denied their motion to convert to chapter 11. On appeal, the debtors argued that appellee chapter 7 trustee had no standing to be heard with respect to the motions because he had filed his final report and been discharged.
