(Bankr. E.D. Ky. Nov. 1, 2016)
The bankruptcy court grants the debtor’s motion for summary judgment in this 11 U.S.C. § 523(a)(6) nondishargeability action. The plaintiff alleged the debtor willfully and maliciously injured the plaintiff, but failed to offer any evidence that would create a material factual dispute as to the debtor’s intent with respect to actions that gave rise to a prepetition judgment against the debtor. The court finds summary judgment in favor of the debtor is appropriate. Opinion below.
Judge: Wise
Attorney for Plaintiff: Noah R. Friend Law Firm, PLLC, Noah R. Friend
Attorney for Debtor: Daryle M. Ronning, James P. Pruitt, Jr.
