“Mrs. Gaudet, like her husband previously, see In re Gaudet, 61 B.R. 349 (Bankr.D.R.I.1986), filed her Chapter 13 petition solely for the purpose of invoking the Bankruptcy Code’s automatic stay provision in order to prevent the foreclosure sale of the family residence, which she owns jointly with her husband, Enos Gaudet, and which was the subject of dispute in all of his litigation before this Court over a six year period.”
