3 later decisions quote this exact passagee.g. Novak v. DeRosa · In Re NOVAK“What constitutes 'cause' for dismissal, which would terminate the stay as to all creditors, surely constitutes 'cause' for relieving a single creditor of the automatic stay.”
2 later decisions quote this exact passage“[M]ay have lost the right to have their claim be deemed an “allowed” claim ( 11 U.S.C. § 502 (a)) and they may have thereby forfeited the right to share in any distribution from the estate created under Chapter 12, that is to share in the moneys paid to the Chapter 12 Trustee for distribution to creditors. See, In re Johnson, 95 B.R. 197 (Bankr.Colo.1989).”
