1Opinion of the Court
TYMKOVICH, Circuit Judge.
The question presented in this appeal is whether Tonda Ford, a debtor in Chapter 7 bankruptcy, is entitled to keep a personal injury settlement arising from a claim she failed to disclose in her bankruptcy proceedings. The bankruptcy court concluded that Ford acted in bad faith in delaying disclosure of her interest in the personal injury suit, and thus denied an exemption that ordinarily applies to personal injury settlements under Utah law. Ford appealed to the Tenth Circuit Bankruptcy Appellate Panel, which reversed.
Two issues are raised by the parties on appeal.…
