Tustin Thrift & Loan Ass'n v. Peyton

U.S. Court of Appeals for the Ninth Circuit
Tustin Thrift & Loan Ass'n v. Peyton, 23 F. App'x 839 (9th Cir. 2001)

Tustin Thrift & Loan Ass'n v. Peyton

Opinion of the Court

MEMORANDUM **

Tustin Thrift & Loan Association (“Tustin”) appeals the Bankruptcy Appellate Panel’s (“BAP”) judgment affirming a bankruptcy judge’s order discharging Ralph and Mary Peyton’s debt to Tustin. We have jurisdiction pursuant to 28 U.S.C. § 158(d). We independently review the bankruptcy court’s rulings on appeal from the BAP, Cool Fuel, Inc. v. Bd. of Equalization (In re Cool Fuel, Inc.), 210 F.3d 999, 1001-02 (9th Cir. 2000), and we affirm.

Because the Peytons disclosed information about their other loan obligation and did not make any misrepresentations to the original lender, the bankruptcy court did not err by finding that the Peytons lacked the requisite intent to defraud Tustin. See 11 U.S.C. § 523(a)(2)(B).

AFFIRMED.
