Church Joint Venture, L.P. v. Blasingame (In re Blasingame)
Bankruptcy Appellate Panel of the Sixth Circuit
1Opinion of the Court
DANIEL S. OPPERMAN, Chief Bankruptcy Appellate Panel Judge.
*616In this appeal, the Panel is asked to determine whether the bankruptcy court erred in holding that a malpractice action for denial of debtors' discharges based on errors and omissions contained in a bankruptcy petition, as well as pre and post-petition legal advice, was not property of the debtors' bankruptcy estate. The Panel finds the reasoning of Underhill v. Huntington National Bank (In re Underhill ), 579 F. App'x 480 (6th Cir. 2014), to be both persuasive and binding. Accordingly, we AFFIRM .
