PUBLIC LAW 95-000—MMMM. DD, 1978

PUBLIC LAW 95-598—NOV. 6, 1978 (c) After an objection to the petition, the court, after notice and a hearing, may dismiss the petition, if the debtor did not file the petition in good faith, or if the petition does not meet the requirements of this title. (e) If the petition is not dismissed under subsection (d) of this section, the court shall order relief under this chapter. (f) The court may not, on account of an appeal from an order for relief, delay any proceeding under this chapter in the case in which the appeal is being taken; nor shall any court order a stay of such proceeding pending such appeal. The reversal on appeal of a finding of jurisdiction does not affect the validity of any debt incurred that is authorized by the court under section 364:(c) or 364(d) of this title, § 922. Automatic stay of enforcement of claims against the debtor (a) A petition filed under this chapter operates as a stay, in addition to the stay provided by section 362 of this title, applicable to all entities, of— (1) the commencement or continuation, including the issuance or employment of process, of judicial, administrative, or other proceeding against an officer or inhabitant of the debtor that seeks to enforce a claim against the debtor; and (2) the enforcement of a lien on or arising out of taxes or assessments owed to the debtor. (b) Subsections (c), (d), (e), (f), and (g) of section 362 of this title apply to a stay under subsection (a) of this section the same as such subsections apply to a stay under section 362(a) of this title. § 923. Notice There shall be given notice of the commencement of a case under this chapter, notice of an order for relief under this chapter, and notice of the dismissal of a case under this chapter. Such notice shall also be published at least once a week for three successive weeks in at least one newspaper of general circulation published within the district in which the case is commenced, and in such other newspaper having a general circulation among bond dealers and bondholders as the court designates. § 924. List of creditors The debtor shall file a list of creditors. § 925. Effect of list of claims A proof of claim is deemed filed under section 501 of this title for any claim that appears in the list filed under section 924 of this title, except a claim that is listed as disputed, contingent, or unliquidated. § 926. Avoiding powers If the debtor refuses to pursue a cause of action under section 544, 545, 547, 548, 549(a), or 550 of this title, then on request of a creditor, the court may appoint a trustee to pursue such cause of action. § 927. Dismissal (a) After notice and a hearing, the court may dismiss a case under this chapter for cause, including— (1) want of prosecution; (2) unreasonable delay by the debtor that is prejudicial to creditors; (3) failure to propose a plan within the time fixed under section 941 of this title;
