Schake v. County of Buffalo (In Re Schake)
United States Bankruptcy Court, D. Nebraska
1Opinion of the Court
MEMORANDUM
JOHN C. MINAHAN, Jr., Bankruptcy Judge.
The Debtor, Debra Schake, seeks a determination that the Buffalo County Attor ney’s Office violated the automatic stay by proceeding on requests to prosecute dishonored checks. Amicus curiae briefs were filed by the Nebraska County Attorney's Association, Legal Services of Southeast Nebraska and Legal Aid in Omaha. The case was submitted on a stipulation of facts, I conclude that the automatic stay was not violated because § 362(b)(1) permits the commencement or continuation of a criminal action or proceeding against bankruptcy debtors.
