Bankruptcy Case Law

In re Dumont, 383 B.R. 481, 489 (9th Cir. BAP 2008)


“Ride through” option under pre-BAPCPA law was eliminated in 2005. However, “if a debtor is in compliance with sections 521(a)(6) or 362(h)(1) and (2), then section 521(d) has no effect, and enforcing an ipso facto default clause is still barred by the Code.”



In re Bennett, 298 F.3d 1059 (9th Cir. 2002)

Absent a valid reaffirmation agreement, an agreement to repay a discharged debt is unenforceable under section 524(a)(2), regardless of California law to the contrary
