In Re Medina
United States Bankruptcy Court, W.D. Texas
1Opinion of the Court
Decision on Motion for Sanctions for Wilful Violation of Automatic Stay
LEIF M. CLARK, Bankruptcy Judge.
On July 20, 2009, the court held a hearing on the debtors’ motion for sanctions for willful violation of the automatic stay by Hill Country Electric. Both parties appeared and presented both evidence and argument. The court reset the matter for ruling, to consider the legal issues created by the sometimes troublesome intersection of Texas’ scheme of remedies for unpaid subcontractors and the automatic stay of the Bankruptcy Code. This decision disposes of the issue. 1
