Post Petition Car Loan in Chapter 7
Posted: Thu Jun 09, 2016 10:48 am
There would not be a first discharge yet....
As to the 523a(2) issue, buyer's remorse is formulated after the fact. Lender must prove fraudulent intent at time of transaction. I think it is a rare set of facts here as I question the acumen of any lender that loans money to someone in the middle of a Chapter 7 bankruptcy proceeding. Barring material misrepresentation by the debtor, I doubt the lender would have an easy time establishing facts that the debtor did not reasonably intend to fulfill the terms of the contract when it was entered.

>>> I have a chapter 7 debtor who, without my knowledge, took out a car loan after the chapter 7 filing. He now wants out of it. Is the loan void due to the failure to obtain court approval under 364 - or for any other reason? Has anyone run across this? I have been looking for case law but can't seem to find anything on point.
