Bernier v. Hang (In re Hang)

United States Bankruptcy Court, D. Rhode Island

Decided June 22, 2018No. BK No. 17-11567; A.P. No. 18-01028PublishedCited by 1 opinion

1Opinion of the Court

Creditors like Mr. Bernier have a legal right to such complete and accurate financial disclosures and are sufficiently harmed by a debtor's failure to do so. Such rights and the remedies afforded by § 727(a)(3) and (4) give rise to their standing to seek the denial of a discharge under these provisions. See DenBeste v. Power(In re DenBeste) , Nos. NC-12-1087-HPaMk, NC-12-1180-HPaMk, 2012 WL 5416513, at *5 (9th Cir. BAP 2012) ; Lussier v. Sullivan (In re Sullivan) , 455 B.R. 829, 835-36 (1st Cir. BAP 2011).

This brings us to Ms. Hang's remaining arguments of mootness and lack of ripeness.
