Litigation
BANKRUPTCY LITIGATION
Litigation arises in a very small minority of cases. Such litigation usually involves an issue arising under sections 523 or 727 of the Bankruptcy Code: fraud, embezzlement, concealment of assets, false statement, disobedience of court order, student loan dischargeability, tax debt dischargeability, or denial/revocation of bankruptcy discharge. Once in a while there is also an issue of a preferential or fraudulent transfer of assets by the Debtor to a 3rd party, usually a relative.
