Cases for NC
Summary:
Chapter 7 Debtors had primarily non-consumer debt and the Bankruptcy Administrator sought dismissal under 11 U.S.C. § 707(a), which states that a court may dismiss a chapter 7 case "after notice and a hearing only for cause," without expressly defining "cause." However, "cause for dismissal under § 707(a) has been held to include a lack of good faith in filing the petition." In re Marino, 388 B.R. 679, 682 (Bankr. E.D.N.C. 2008).
