1Opinion of the Court
CORNISH, Bankruptcy Judge.
Creditor Lawrence Athletic Club (“LAC”) appeals a judgment of the United States Bankruptcy Court for the District of Kansas entered in favor of Tara Bushaw Scroggin (“Debtor”) for damages and sanctions resulting from LAC’s willful violation of the automatic stay. Debtor filed a motion to dismiss the appeal as moot which is also before this Court. For the following reasons, we determine that: 1) the appeal is not moot, so we must address the merits of the case; and 2) based on the merits, the judgment of the bankruptcy court should be affirmed.
