In re Bailey

Ruling
Bad faith dismissal denied as debtor's expenses far exceeded net income.
Procedural posture

Movant, an ex-wife of a chapter 13 debtor, asked the court to dismiss debtor's chapter 13 case as permitted by 11 U.S.C.S. § 1307(c) on her claim that he had filed it in bad faith and for the non-economic purpose of harassing her and causing her increased attorney's fees, and also to circumvent rulings of a state court relating to debtor's financial obligations.
