7th Circuit Court of Appeals
Donald Wayne Bush v. USA
16-3244
Appeal from the United States District Court for the Southern District of Indiana, Indianapolis Division. Judge William T. Lawrence.
Civil. Vacates the Southern District Court’s decision due to its basis on an “erroneous jurisdictional view.” Finds that although the bankruptcy judge was right to hold that he had authority to resolve the tax dispute between Donald and Kimberly Bush and the United States while the Bushes’ bankruptcy was ongoing, the exercise of that authority was no longer appropriate. Remands with instructions to remand to the bankruptcy judge for the entry of an order under §1334(c)(1), marking the final step in the Bushes’ bankruptcy proceedings.
