UNITED STATES BANKRUPTCY COURT
FOR THE DISTRICT OF MARYLAND
at Greenbelt
In re: 	:
LaShawn Shyneak Davis 	: 	Case no. 06-11604-PM
Chapter 7
:
Debtor.
MEMORANDUM OF DECISION
Caroline Leake filed a Motion to Reopen Chapter 7 Case on December 12, 2006. No
response was filed. A hearing was held on the motion on January 24, 2007. For the reasons
stated below, the motion will be denied.
This case was filed under Chapter 7 on March 23, 2006. The June 28, 2006 order
discharging debtor only served to discharge debts accrued prior to the date of the filing of the
petition, and did not operate to discharge debts accrued after the date of filing of the case, such
as any obligation for occupancy of the movant’s premises. 11 U.S.C. § 727(b) provides: “Except
as provided in section 523 of this title, a discharge under subsection (a) of this section discharges
the debtor from all debts that arose before the date of the order for relief under this chapter . . . .”
A separate order denying the motion will be entered concurrently with this memorandum.
