IN THE UNITED STATES BANKRUPTCY COURT
FOR THE DISTRICT OF PUERTO RICO
IN RE:
LEONARDO PORTELA TORRES
Debtor
CASE NO. 10-11246 (ESL)
CHAPTER 11
OPINION AND ORDER
There are two contested matters before this court. The first is creditor Maria I. Blanco
Garrido’s (hereinafter referred to as “Blanco”) request for relief of stay (Docket Nos. 25, 59 & 84).
The second is Blanco’s motion to dismiss the instant case for varied reasons, including Debtor’s
alleged failure to timely pay his post-petition domestic support obligations (“DSO”) and tax
obligations, the Rooker-Feldman doctrine and lack of good faith (Dockets Nos. 31, 70, 74, 77, 79,1
80, 90, 94 & 104). Debtor opposed to both remedies sought by Blanco (Dockets Nos. 37, 54, 59,
75, 82, 83, 85, 86, 91, 99 & 122). Two separate hearings were held regarding these matters: the first
was held on January 25, 2011 (Dockets No. 29 & 40 ) and the second one on March 14, 20112
(Docket No. 61). For the reasons stated herein, this court grants Blanco’s motion to dismiss the
instant case under 11 U.S.C. § 1112(b)(4)(I). Consequently, Blanco’s request for lift of stay is
moot.
Facts and Procedural Background
Prior to filing his bankruptcy petition, Debtor and Blanco were married and subsequently
divorced in the judicial proceeding of Portela Torres v. Blanco Garrido, Case No. DDI2005-0748
(4003) before the Puerto Rico Court of First Instance (“CFI”), Superior Court of Bayamón. During
their marriage, Debtor and Blanco procreated three children, all of whom are currently minors.
(Docket No. 25, Exhibit B, pg. 10)
After the divorce decree became final and unappealable, on May 14, 2007 the CFI issued
a DSO Order upon Debtor for his three minor children in the amount of $9,388.44 per month
Although Blanco does not cite the source of the Rooker-Feldman doctrine in any of her motions, it arises	
1
from two separate cases: Rooker v. Fidelity Trust Co., 263 U.S. 413 (1923), and District of Columbia Court of
Appeals v. Feldman, 460 U.S. 462 (1983). In essence, the doctrine holds that federal courts should not sit in direct
review of state court decisions --unless Congress has specifically authorized such relief-- and that therefore federal
courts should not become a court of appeals for state court decisions.
Docket No. 29 is the minute entry of that hearing; Docket No. 40 is the transcript of the same.

retroactive to April 5, 2005 (the “DSO Order”, Docket No. 25, Exhibit B, pgs. 11-12).
At Blanco’s request, on June 15, 2010, the CFI ordered Debtor inter alia to sell his property
at Dorado Beach East #8 (the “Dorado Beach Property”) located in Dorado, PR, to Mr. and Mrs.
Horacio Campolieto within 30 days, not subject to an extension, and to appear in any private or
public document required to execute the sale. If Debtor did not comply, the CFI empowered a
marshal of that Court to appear on Debtor’s behalf to urgently execute the sale within 30 days.
(Docket No. 62)
On November 30, 2010, Debtor filed a voluntary bankruptcy petition under Chapter 11 of
the Bankruptcy Code (Docket No. 1). A Chapter 11 status conference was held on January 25, 2011
(Dockets Nos. 29 & 40) in which the Court expressed its concerns regarding the challenges facing
an individual Chapter 11 debtor and a small business debtor.3
Motion for Relief of Stay
On January 21, 2011, Blanco filed a Motion for Relief of Stay (Docket No. 25) alleging that
Debtor had not complied with his DSO, that as a result she moved the CFI for an order to sell the
Dorado Beach Property in order for Debtor to comply with his DSO and that any excess of his DSO
be consigned with the CFI, that the order was issued by the CFI, and that on the verge of the sale
of said Property, Debtor filed the instant bankruptcy case. Blanco alleges that Debtor’s bankruptcy
petition was filed in bad faith inasmuch as it constitutes a clear attempt to stay his DSO and its
further execution Order by the CFI, that she is lacks adequate protection of her interests that amount
to the payment of accrued child support payments and that Debtor’s property is not necessary for
an effective reorganization. She also seeks super priority status under 11 U.S.C. § 507(b) and
preclusion of the assessment of costs or expenses of administrations, if any, under 11 U.S.C. §
506(c).
On February 10, 2011, Debtor answered Blanco’s request for relief from the automatic stay
(Docket No. 37) arguing that the DSO Order in which Blanco based her motion for relief from stay
See Docket No. 40 (transcript of the initial status conference held on January 25, 2011), where the court	
3
made reference to Sections 507(a)(1), 521(f), 523(a)(5), 1129(a)(14), 1129(a)(9)(b) and 1141(d)(5) of the
Bankruptcy Code.

is pending to be reduced at his request, which was initially denied by the CFI but subsequently
overturned by the Puerto Rico Court of Appeals in Case No. KLCE 200800434. Debtor also4
affirms that the collateral property, referring specifically to the Dorado Beach Property, is necessary
to his effective reorganization, that Blanco is adequately protected, and that the Property, which has
sufficient equity cushion, must be sold at an adequate price to benefit all creditors.
Motion to Dismiss
On January 28, 2011, Blanco filed a Motion to Dismiss (Docket No. 31) under 11 U.S.C.
§ 1112(b)(4)(P) alleging that Debtor then owed more than $200,000 in child support arrears, which
is sufficient cause for dismissal. In addition, Blanco argued that the Rooker-Feldman doctrine is
applicable to this case because Debtor ultimately seeks to overturn a prior State Court decision in
Federal Court. Blanco further averred that the bankruptcy petition was filed in bad faith, which also
warrants dismissal.
On February 22, 2011, Debtor filed his Answer to Motion to Dismiss (Docket No. 54)
contending that the DSO Order was pending to be reviewed at his request, as ordered by the PR
Court of Appeals in Case No. KLCE200800434, to take into consideration the payments in kind he
is contributing towards his DSO, which he averred exceed his DSO. He also argued that the
Rooker-Feldman doctrine is not applicable to this case because, since he only requested from the
CFI that the DSO be reduced in consideration of said payments in kind, he has not really “lost” in
the State Court and therefore is not inviting this Federal Court to review, reject or set aside the DSO
Order. In sum, he alleges that his plan for reorganization includes the rent or sale or the Property
at an adequate price and the sale of personal property , options that he contends would benefit all4
creditors. Thus, his bankruptcy petition was filed good faith.
On March 14, 2011, a second hearing was held to argue Blanco’s motion to dismiss. She
argued that Debtor was in arrears of post-petition DSO payments and reiterated the Rooker-5
Feldman doctrine and lack his of good faith. Debtor presented the Court with his arguments in
Neither party sought review of that decision by the Supreme Court of Puerto Rico.

Debtor also sustains that Blanco has refused to turn over his personal property.	4
See 11 U.S.C. § 1112(b)(4)(P).

response to Blanco’s contentions. No evidence was presented by any party during that hearing and
on the contrary, both Debtor and Blanco proposed to the Court that if either would testify, their
testimony would only consist of what they had already alleged in their respective motions.
On April 1, 2011, Blanco filed an Addendum to [her] Motion to Dismiss (Docket No. 70)
alleging that the payment of $38,700 Debtor claimed to have made towards his DSO was actually
a donation made by a relative that should not be considered as a payment towards Debtor’s DSO.
No legal authority was cited to support that contention. A Second Addendum to Motion to Dismiss
was later filed on April 7, 2011 (Docket No. 74) insisting that the alleged donation cannot be
considered as Debtor’s payment towards his DSO and that he does not have the apparent ability to
pay his DSO as evidenced by his monthly operating reports, which warrants dismissal under 11
U.S.C. § 1112.
On April 15, 2011, Debtor filed a Motion to Strike Addendum to Motion Requesting
Dismissal (Docket No. 75) arguing that the referred donation was made to Debtor to pay his DSO
by virtue of a check to the order of ASUME (the PR DSO payment instrumentality) and that his
ability to pay his DSO is part of his reorganizational plan, whereby he intends to sell or rent the
Dorado Property and sell some of his personal property such as valued artwork. On April 18, 2011,
Blanco replied to that motion (Docker No. 77) and insisted that the donation cannot be considered
a payment of Debtor toward his DSO .6
On April 21, 2011, Blanco filed a Motion Requesting Order (Docket No. 79) in which she
again moved for the dismissal of this case for DSO arrears pursuant to 11 U.S.C. § 1112(b)(4)(P).
On April 24, 2011, Blanco replied to Debtor’s Motion to Strike Addendum (Docket No. 80)
sustaining that Debtor had not reported the alleged donation in the corresponding Monthly
Operating Report and that his actions constitute bad faith.
A few more motions were filed by Blanco requesting the dismissal of this case under 11
U.S.C. § 1112(4)(P) for Debtor’s lack of post-petition DSO payments for several periods, which
Debtor replied to. (Dockets No. 90, 91, 94 & 99) These motions and the documents attached
thereto show that Debtor has not been paying his post-petition DSO on time.
Again, no legal authority was cited to support that contention.

On July 26, 2011, the Puerto Rico Treasury Department (“PR Treasury”) filed a Request for
the Allowance and Payment of Administrative Expenses (Docket No. 101) informing that Debtor
has not paid post-petition tax liabilities in the amount of $3,223.94 and requesting that these taxes
be considered administrative expenses pursuant to 11 U.S.C. §§ 503(b) and 507. Shortly thereafter,
that is, on August 4, 2011, Blanco again moved for dismissal (Docket No. 104) claiming that
Debtor had not filed his monthly operating reports as of March of 2011 and that he was in arrears
with his post-petition tax obligations and DSO payments. Debtor then proceeded to untimely file
his Monthly Operating Reports for the months of March 2011 to July 2011 all at once on7
September 7, 2011 (Dockets Nos. 112-116). As of today, Debtor has not filed the monthly
operating reports for the months of August and September 2011.
On September 1, 2011, this Court issued an Order to Show Cause re: Dismissal (Docket No.
110) directing Debtor to show cause within 14 days why the case should not be dismissed for the
reasons stated by Blanco in her motion to dismiss of August 14, 2011 (Docket No. 104). On
September 15, 2011, Debtor filed a Motion in Compliance with Court Order to Show Cause re:
Dismissal (Docket No. 122) sustaining that he is not in arrears of his DSO payments.
Notwithstanding, Debtor acknowledged that he is in arrears in his post-petition tax obligations and
that he intends to pay “opportunely in accordance with [his] plan”, making reference to Dockets
Nos. 118 & 119. Docket No. 122, ¶ 13, pg. 5.
Applicable Law
Cause for Conversion or Dismissal pursuant 11 U.S.C. § 1112(b)
11 U.S.C. § 1112(b)(1) provides as follows:
Except as provided in paragraph (2) and subsection (c), on request of a party in
interest, and after notice and a hearing, the court shall convert a case under this
chapter to a case under chapter 7 or dismiss a case under this chapter, whichever is
in the best interests of creditors and the estate, for cause unless the court determines
that the appointment under section 1104(a) of a trustee or an examiner is in the best
interests of creditors and the estate. (Emphasis ours.)
11 U.S.C. § 308 imposes upon debtor in a small business, such as Debtor in the instant case, the	
7
responsibility to report periodic financial and other reports containing the information set therein. Rule 2015 of
Bankruptcy Procedure also requires debtors in possession, such as Debtor in the instant case, to file a statement of
any disbursements made during that quarter. PR Local Bankruptcy Rule 2015-2 requires debtors in possession to
file with the court a monthly financial report due on the 20 of each subsequent month.	th

The Court’s discretion to dismiss or convert a Chapter 11 case is limited if cause is
establised. See Gilroy v. Ameriquest Mortg. Co. (In re Gilroy), 2008 Bankr. Lexis 3968, 2008 WL
4531982 (B.A.P. 1 Cir. 2008); and AmeriCERT, Inc. v. Straight Through Processing, Inc. (In rest
AmeriCERT, Inc.), 360 B.R. 398, 401 (Bankr. D. N.H. 2007) (“Prior to its amendment, the statute
provided that a court ‘may’ dismiss the case upon finding cause, but amended section 1112(b)
provides that a court ‘shall’ dismiss if cause is found, absent unusual circumstances.”). The initial
burden is on the movant to argue and present evidence by a preponderance of the evidence standard
to prove its position that there is cause for either conversion or dismissal of the Chapter 11 case,
whichever is in the best interests of creditors and the estate. See Alan N. Resnick & Henry J.
Sommer, 7 Collier on Bankruptcy ¶1112.04[4] (16 ed. 2011). “Thus, until the movant carries thisth
burden, the statutory direction that the court ‘shall convert the case to a case under chapter 7 or
dismiss the case’ is not operative.” Id. Once cause is found, the burden shifts to the opposing party
to show why dismissal or conversion would not be in the best interests of the estate and the
creditors. See In re Dr. R. Samanta Roy Institute of Science Technology Inc., 2011 US App. Lexis
12148 (3 Cir. 2011). Once the movant establishes “cause”, the burden shifts to the debtor tord
demonstrate by evidence the “unusual circumstances” that establish that dismissal or conversion
to Chapter 7 is not in the best interests of the creditors and the estate. See Alan N. Resnick & Henry
J. Sommer, 7 Collier on Bankruptcy ¶ 1112.05[1] (16 ed. 2011). The bankruptcy court retainsth
discretion in determining whether unusual circumstances exist and whether conversion or dismissal
is in the best interest of creditors and the estate. See Id.; Gilroy v. Ameriquest Mortg. Co. (In re
Gilroy), 2008 Bankr. Lexis 3968 (1 Cir. B.A.P. 2008). A determination of unusual circumstancesst
is fact intensive and contemplates facts that are not common to Chapter 11 cases. See Alan N.
Resnick & Henry J. Sommer, 7 Collier on Bankruptcy ¶1112.05[1] (16 ed. 2011). If the Chapterth
11 case is devoid of “unusual circumstances”, then the bankruptcy court must apply the Section
1112(b)(2) analysis to determine whether the Chapter 11 case is dismissed or converted. The8
Section 1112(b)(2) provides that:	
8
[t]he court may not convert a case under this chapter to a case under chapter 7 or dismiss a case under
this chapter if the court finds and specifically identifies unusual circumstances establishing that

objecting party must establish all of the factual elements stated in subparagraphs (A) and (B) of
section 1112(b)(2). See Alan N. Resnick & Henry J. Sommer, 7 Collier on Bankruptcy ¶1112.05[1]
(16 ed. 2011). Thus, the bankruptcy court may not convert or dismiss a case if: “(1) there is ath
reasonable likelihood that a plan will be confirmed within a reasonable time; (2) the ‘cause’ for
dismissal or conversion is something other than a continuing loss or diminution of the estate
coupled with a lack of reasonable likelihood of rehabilitation; and (3) there is a reasonable
justification or excuse for a debtor’s act or omission and the act or omission will be cured within
a reasonable time.” In re Orbit Petroleum, Inc., 395 B.R. 145, 148 (Bankr. D. N.M. 2008) aff’d,
421 B.R. 602 (B.A.P. 10 Cir. 2009).th
Although Section 1112(b)(4) of the Bankruptcy Code fails to define what the term “cause”
means, it provides a list of circumstances which constitute “cause” for conversion or dismissal.
This list of causes is non-exhaustive and therefore a case may be converted or dismissed for other
causes. See AmeriCERT, Inc. v. Straight Through Processing, Inc. (In re AmeriCERT, Inc.), 360
B.R. at 401, and Tuli v. US Trustee, 124 Fed. Appx. 830, 831 (5 Cir. 2005). See also 11 U.S.C.th
§ 1112(b)(4) (using the term “includes” before listing various reasons for dismissing a case).
Section 1112(b)(4)(I) specifically establishes that “failure timely to pay taxes owed after the date
of the order for relief or to file tax returns due after the date of the order for relief” constitutes cause
to dismiss or convert a Chapter 11 case. Thus, failure to file a tax return or pay taxes post-petition
is ground for dismissal. See In re Dr. R. C. Samanta Roy Inst. of Sci. Tech. Inc., 2011 U.S. App.
LEXIS 12148 (8 Cir. 2011).th
Section 1112(b)(1) requires “notice and a hearing” prior to dismissal or conversion. The
phrase “notice and a hearing” is defined as “after such notice is appropriate in the particular
converting or dismissing the case is not in the best interests of creditors and the estate, and the debtor
or any other party in interest establishes that–
(A) there is a reasonable likelihood that a plan will be confirmed within the time frames
established in sections 1121(e) and 1129(e) of this title, or if such sections do not
apply, within a reasonable period of time; and
(B) the grounds for converting or dismissing the case include an act or omission of the
debtor other than under paragraph (4)(A)--
(i) for which there exists a reasonable justification for the act or omission;
and
(ii) that will be cured within a reasonable period of time fixed by the court.

circumstances, and such opportunity for a hearing is appropriate in the particular circumstances”
(emphasis added). 11 U.S.C. § 102(A) See also Yehyd-Monosson USA, Inc. v. Fokkena (In re
Yehyd-Monosson USA, Inc.), 2011 Bankr. LEXIS 3725 (8 Cir. 2011) (no evidentiary hearing wasth
required under 11 U.S.C. § 1112 when the Court’s decision is supported in a Debtor’s admission
of a fact), In re De Jounghe, 334 B.R. 760, 766 (1 Cir. B.A.P. 2005) (“a full evidentiary [hearing]st
is not required, so long as the parties had a fair opportunity to offer relevant facts and arguments
to the court and to confront their adversaries’ submissions”), and In re C-TC 9 Ave. Partnership,th
113 F. 3d 1304, 1312 (2 Cir. 1997) (an evidentiary hearing was not necessary when “the recordnd
is sufficiently well developed to allow the bankruptcy court to draw the necessary inferences to
dismiss a Chapter 11 case for cause …”). Even when a non-evidentiary hearing is conducted under
11 U.S.C. § 1112(b), “failure to offer evidence at the hearing may constitute a waiver by the
debtors.” In re De Jounghe, 334 B.R. at 766 citing In re City Stores Co., 42 B.R. 685, 689
(S.D.N.Y. 1984).
After the moving party establishes that there is cause to dismiss or convert the case to
Chapter 7, the court must choose between dismissal or conversion, “whichever is in the best interest
of creditors and the estate.” 11 U.S.C. § 1112(b)(1). The standard for choosing between conversion
or dismissal based on “the best interest of creditors and the estate” implies application of a
balancing test by the bankruptcy court. See In re De Jounghe, 334 B.R. at 770, and In re Staff Inv.
Co., 146 B.R. 256, 260 (Bankr. E.D. Cal. 1992). The legislative history shows that Congress
intended to invest the bankruptcy court with “wide discretion … to make an appropriate disposition
of the case” and “to consider other factors as they arise, and use its equitable powers to reach an
appropriate result in individual cases.” In re De Jounghe, 334 B.R. at 770, citing H.R. Rep. No.
595, 95 Cong., 2d Sess. 406, reprinted in 1978 U.S.C.C.A.N. 5963, 6361-62.th
Discussion
In the instant case, this court finds that the Debtor failed to timely pay his post-petition
taxes. The finding is based upon the PR Treasury’s Request for the Allowance and Payment of

Administrative Expenses (Docket No. 101) , Blanco’s Supplement Motion to Dismiss (Docket No.9
104), the Order to Show Cause re: Dismissal (Docket No. 110) and Debtor’s own admission in his
Motion in Compliance with Court Order to Show Cause re: Dismissal (Docket No. 122, pgs. 4-5,
¶ 13: “As for the assessment of the 2011 Special Contribution over the property on the amount of
$1,861.06, the total amount will be paid opportunely in accordance with Debtor’s plan.”)
Thus, this court concludes that there is sufficient cause to dismiss the instant case pursuant
to 11 U.S.C. 1112(b)(4)(I).
Due to Debtor’s own admission, no evidentiary hearing is necessary, especially since he did
not request one after the tax controversy was raised by the PR Treasury and Blanco. See Yehyd-10
Monosson USA, Inc. v. Fokkena (In re Yehyd-Monosson USA, Inc.), 2011 Bankr. LEXIS 3725 (8th
Cir. 2011), In re De Jounghe, 334 B.R. at 766, and In re C-TC 9 Ave. Partnership, 113 F. 3d atth
1312. Moreover, the court in its Order to Show Cause Re: Dismissal (Docket No. 110) afforded
the Debtor the opportunity to contest the allegations that he was not paying all post petition taxes.
Counterwise, he admitted owing the same.
The next phase of the analysis the court must engage in is whether Debtor has demonstrated
that there are “unusual circumstances” that establish that the dismissal or conversion is not in the
best interests of the creditors and the estate. The court finds that the Debtor has not demonstrated
