In Re Chestnut Co., Inc.
United States Bankruptcy Court, D. South Carolina
1Opinion of the Court
ORDER
J. BRATTON DAVIS, Bankruptcy Judge.
This matter comes before the court on the motion of Citizens and Southern National Bank of South Carolina (C & S) seeking relief from the automatic stay pursuant to 11 U.S.C. 1 § 362 in order that the bank may exercise its right to setoff under §§ 506 and 553. The debtor argues that because the bank is not entitled to setoff for the reason that mutuality of obligation as required by § 553 is lacking, the bank is unsecured and not entitled to relief from the automatic stay. The court disagrees.
