Federal 7th Circuit Court
Civil Court
Bankruptcy
Bankruptcy Ct. erred in denying creditor’s objection to discharge of debtor’s $169,000 debt based on fact that debtor had concealed her assets and income during prior citation proceedings that creditor had initiated, where Bankruptcy Ct. considered existence of debtor’s assets/income only as of date of citation examination. Moreover, while Bankruptcy Ct. could reasonably find that creditor had failed to show that debtor had concealed ownership interests in certain property and stocks, record showed that debtor had obtained employment income either prior to or during citation proceedings, that debtor had failed to reveal said income although required to do so, and that debtor had concealed said income with intent to hinder, delay or defraud said creditor. Fact debtor may not have received said income at time of instant citation examination is not material, where debtor had continuing obligation to report said income during entire pendency of citation to discover assets.
