Ong v. Ong-Maguire (In re Ong-Maguire), 2010 BNH 024 (denying a motion to dismiss on Counts I, III, and IV of an amended complaint because the complaint contained enough facts to establish a plausible claim for relief under 11 U.S.C. §§ 523(a)(2)(A), 523(a)(4), and 727(a)(2)(B) based on the Defendant’s conduct acting as a trustee of a family trust; granting the motion to dismiss on Count II under § 727(a)(4)(A) because the false oath was not made in connection with the bankruptcy case).
In re Wunderlich, 2010 BNH 023 (reducing the amount of interim fees requested by the trustee because a pro se creditor spent numerous hours investigating the assets of the Debtor and is responsible for obtaining a significant amount of the assets in the case).

U.S. Trustee v. Perrotta (In re Perrotta), 2010 BNH 018 (denying the debtor’s motion to dismiss the U.S. Trustee’s amended complaint as untimely where the debtor asked the court to treat the motion as a motion for summary judgment under Fed. R. Bankr. P. 7012 because: (1) the record still left genuine issues of material fact regarding the U.S. Trustee’s knowledge of evidence to support the amended counts and (2) the debtor had not demonstrated any prejudice in the U.S. Trustee’s alleged delay in filing the amended complaint).
In re O’Neil, 2010 BNH 017 (denying motion for determination that proceeds from sale of debtor's stock in his business should not be part of the bankruptcy estate, because marital court's order appointing a receiver did not effectively attach debtor's stock and did not divest the debtor of legal title in the stock so as to prevent the stock from passing into the bankruptcy estate).
