How Judge Glenn decides

Patterns drawn from this judge's own signed orders. Every observation links to the order it came from.

Procedural preferences

A nondebtor may be examined about matters affecting estate administration when the examination occurs in the district where the witness resides.

“The Trustee may examine any entity, including nondebtors, regarding matters that affect the administration of the estate.”

At the pleading stage, a willful-injury claim survives when the alleged conduct is both willful and malicious.

“the Plaintiff has sufficiently alleged that the Debtor’s conduct in the State Court action was both willful and malicious.”
