ZURZOLO QUESTION re Automatic Stay..... Dear Memb=
Posted: Wed Nov 27, 2013 12:43 pm
Zurzolo follows Rinard as to second cases under 362(c)(3)--he does not
think it is necessary to continue the stay as to property of the estate in
such cases.
However, in a third case, my guess is that he would agree that there is no
stay until/unless the court grants a motion to impose a stay since Rinard
only applies to second cases--not third cases. I think he might grant such
a motion IF the debtor could show by clear and convincing evidence that the
third case was filed in good faith as to the creditor to be stayed, as must
be shown in order to satisfy the requirement of 362(c)(4)(D). But the
premise of your question assumes that the third case was a bad faith case
(and it sure sounds like it was), so I think Stella is correct that the
motion would be denied since the Debtor would not be able to produce the
necessary evidence to overcome the presumption.
