Heard: July 23, 2010
Written Decision: September 22, 2010
Subject: Whether a bankrupt as a condition of his discharge should be required to disclose the name of a lender to whom he made a preference payment immediately prior to bankruptcy, when he has fear that illegal enforcement measures would be brought against him and his family, if disclosure was made.
Result: His fear was accepted as honest. An unconditional discharge was granted but suspended for a year to address his lack of honesty when he made his assignment.
