Central District Consumer Bankruptcy Attorney's Association

Thanks for sharing this Shannon. It is particularly interesting that the BAP observed a critical distinction between contempt under section 105 vs. section 362(k), and directly implied that the result would be different under 362(k).
As this decision issued only a few days ago, I will pass it along to Judge Bason, since it may not have been brought to his attention just yet.
