MEMORANDUM OPINION
MARK B. McFEELEY, Chief Judge.
THIS MATTER came before the Court on the Trustee’s Motion to Dismiss. This well argued case raises the unique issue of whether a conservator may file a voluntary petition for bankruptcy on behalf of a debtor whose whereabouts are unknown. Having heard the arguments of counsel, considered the letter memorandum submitted by counsel for the Debtor, and being otherwise fully informed, the Court finds that a conservator cannot file a petition for bankruptcy under these circumstances and grants the Trustee’s Motion to Dismiss.
