A pro se debtor failed to obtain the pre-bankruptcy credit counseling required by 11 U.S.C. § 109(h) and the bankruptcy court sua sponte issued an Order to Show Cause why the case should not be dismissed. Despite opposition from the Chapter 7 trustee, who, having been alerted by Wells Fargo, believed there were non-exempt funds available, the bankruptcy court held that the case must be dismissed.

Summary:
A pharmacy filed Ch. 7, with its primary asset being $40-50,000 in drug inventory.

Accordingly, as there were no other assets, dismissal was proper to allow the Pharmacy Board to dispose of the drugs.
