IN THE UNITED STATES DISTRICT COURT
FOR THE DISTRICT OF NEBRASKA
UNITED STATES OF AMERICA,
Plaintiff,
8:15-CV-57
vs.
ORDER
WILLIAM LEE DOUGLAS, II, et al.,
Defendants.
This matter is before the Court on the suggestion of bankruptcy filed by
two of the defendants, William Lee Douglas II and Denise K. Douglas (filing
13). NEGenR 1.5(a)(1) provides that
[u]pon the filing of a suggestion in bankruptcy, or other
notification that a party to a civil case is a debtor in a bankruptcy
case, the court issues an order staying further proceedings in the
case as to the party in bankruptcy. The case may proceed as to
any parties not in bankruptcy. If any party files a motion
requesting referral of the case to the bankruptcy court, the case is
referred to the bankruptcy court for further action. Upon
receiving the referral, the bankruptcy judge requests status
reports from the parties. After reviewing the status reports, the
bankruptcy judge determines whether the case should proceed in
bankruptcy court or be returned to district court. If the case is to
be returned to district court, the bankruptcy judge files a report
and recommendation concerning withdrawal of the reference. The
report includes a recommendation regarding the necessity of the
debtor’s participation in the case, and, if appropriate, the
bankruptcy judge enters an order in the bankruptcy case
granting relief from the automatic stay to allow the case to
proceed with the debtor as a party.
IT IS ORDERED:
1.
This case is stayed as to defendants William Lee Douglas II
and Denise K. Douglas, pursuant to NEGenR 1.5(a)(1).
2.
The case may proceed as to defendants Household Finance
Corporation III and Diana F. Carnahan.
Dated this 27th day of April, 2015.
BY THE COURT:
John M. Gerrard
United States District Judge
