The court denied a motion to amend a complaint objecting to the discharge of debt in a bankruptcy case. The original complaint alleged the debtor failed to disclose assets like a corral and horses in bankruptcy filings. The proposed amendment alleged rental property fraud. The court found the proposed amendment did not relate back to the original complaint under Rule 15(c), as the facts alleged were different. A two-day trial was scheduled for May 31st and June 1st to resolve the original complaint.

elf-represented litigant questions Federal Bankruptcy Judge Catherine Peek McEwen after firing her attorneys for continuing to litigate a pending State Court case that was under automatic stay on a pending motion to dismiss that was filed after she was granted a restraining order against the owner of the company who was using his company to gain access to her financial records after a failed dating relationship. The Complaint to Determine Dischargeability was filed without seeking relief of the automatic stay. The State Court case was not removed to Federal jurisdiction nor was it referred to the Bankruptcy Court. The case continued for three years while the court refused to discharge her bankruptcy, further financially abusing a disabled litigant based on false employment allegations by her ex-boyfriend.

WINDING UP of COMPANY, Modes of DissolutionKHURRAMWALI
Winding up, also known as liquidation, refers to the legal and financial process of dissolving a company. It involves ceasing operations, selling assets, settling debts, and ultimately removing the company from the official business registry.
Here's a breakdown of the key aspects of winding up:
Reasons for Winding Up:
Insolvency: This is the most common reason, where the company cannot pay its debts. Creditors may initiate a compulsory winding up to recover their dues.
Voluntary Closure: The owners may decide to close the company due to reasons like reaching business goals, facing losses, or merging with another company.
Deadlock: If shareholders or directors cannot agree on how to run the company, a court may order a winding up.
Types of Winding Up:
Voluntary Winding Up: This is initiated by the company's shareholders through a resolution passed by a majority vote. There are two main types:
Members' Voluntary Winding Up: The company is solvent (has enough assets to pay off its debts) and shareholders will receive any remaining assets after debts are settled.
Creditors' Voluntary Winding Up: The company is insolvent and creditors will be prioritized in receiving payment from the sale of assets.
Compulsory Winding Up: This is initiated by a court order, typically at the request of creditors, government agencies, or even by the company itself if it's insolvent.
Process of Winding Up:
Appointment of Liquidator: A qualified professional is appointed to oversee the winding-up process. They are responsible for selling assets, paying off debts, and distributing any remaining funds.
Cease Trading: The company stops its regular business operations.
Notification of Creditors: Creditors are informed about the winding up and invited to submit their claims.
Sale of Assets: The company's assets are sold to generate cash to pay off creditors.
Payment of Debts: Creditors are paid according to a set order of priority, with secured creditors receiving payment before unsecured creditors.
Distribution to Shareholders: If there are any remaining funds after all debts are settled, they are distributed to shareholders according to their ownership stake.
Dissolution: Once all claims are settled and distributions made, the company is officially dissolved and removed from the business register.
Impact of Winding Up:
Employees: Employees will likely lose their jobs during the winding-up process.
Creditors: Creditors may not recover their debts in full, especially if the company is insolvent.
Shareholders: Shareholders may not receive any payout if the company's debts exceed its assets.
Winding up is a complex legal and financial process that can have significant consequences for all parties involved. It's important to seek professional legal and financial advice when considering winding up a company.

Responsibilities of the office bearers while registering multi-state cooperat...Finlaw Consultancy Pvt Ltd
Introduction-
The process of register multi-state cooperative society in India is governed by the Multi-State Co-operative Societies Act, 2002.

PRECEDENT AS A SOURCE OF LAW (SAIF JAVED).pptxOmGod1
Precedent, or stare decisis, is a cornerstone of common law systems where past judicial decisions guide future cases, ensuring consistency and predictability in the legal system. Binding precedents from higher courts must be followed by lower courts, while persuasive precedents may influence but are not obligatory. This principle promotes fairness and efficiency, allowing for the evolution of the law as higher courts can overrule outdated decisions. Despite criticisms of rigidity and complexity, precedent ensures similar cases are treated alike, balancing stability with flexibility in judicial decision-making.
A "File Trademark" is a legal term referring to the registration of a unique symbol, logo, or name used to identify and distinguish products or services. This process provides legal protection, granting exclusive rights to the trademark owner, and helps prevent unauthorized use by competitors.

(Call to order of the Court.)
THE COURT: Number 2.1, Geraldine Redmond, Sulphur
Mountain Land and Livestock, LLC, against the Debtor.
MR. CHATFIELD: Good morning, your Honor. David
Chatfield for the Moving Party.
MR. STANLEY: Good morning, your Honor. Steven
Stanley on behalf of the Debtor/Defendant, Geraldine
Redmond.
THE COURT: Can you show me language in the
original complaint that even hints of this rental fraud when
the complaint talks about failure to maintain records and
failure to include assets in schedules? I am at a loss to
see how this relates back. Mr. Chatfield?
MR. CHATFIELD: Well, your Honor, the -- the --
THE COURT: Just because you say so in broad terms
doesn't make it so.
MR. CHATFIELD: I -- I agree, your Honor. The
complaint did not assert the facts -- even though it's based
upon the same transaction, did not allege the facts which we
are alleging in our amendment because we didn't have the --
the evidence to prove the facts, and it -- the relation --
THE COURT: What facts? How can it relate back?
I mean, it's not the same facts. The facts alleged in the

complaint had to do with:
"Defendant knowingly and fraudulently
made a false oath by omitting from her
schedules any reference to certain
personal property, including a corral
valued in excess of $5,000 and horses
valued in excess of $10,000.
Additionally, she concealed, destroyed,
mutilated, falsified, or failed to keep
or preserve any recorded information,
including books, documents, and records
from which Defendant's financial
condition and business transactions
might be ascertained."
That's not the same facts. That's not Englander.
Englander talked about three loans, and in the original
complaint it just said "They defrauded us. We made three
loans. They still owe it to us. It's non-dischargeable."
They didn't even say it's defrauded. They said it's non-
dischargeable under Section 523. And then they filed an
amended complaint and said, "Oh, by the way, here's why it's
non-dischargeable," but it's the same three loans.
Nothing in your original complaint talks about any
landlord/tenant relationship, period.
MR. CHATFIELD: Well, your Honor, it -- our case

really rests more on the equitable tolling doctrine than on
the relation back doctrine in that under that doctrine --
THE COURT: That's not what you briefed. You
briefed 15(c).
MR. CHATFIELD: Your Honor, I -- I recognize that
we did -- we did raise in our brief the -- the policies of
the equitable tolling doctrine, although we did not cite the
cases or actually cite the doctrine itself. As the Court
knows, that the -- the Ninth Circuit has determined that
the -- that the time limits are not jurisdiction and are
subject to waiver, estoppel, or equitable tolling, and in
this situation it cries out for equitable tolling.
THE COURT: Don't go there. You didn't brief it.
You didn't brief it, and my recollection of the equitable
tolling case law doesn't apply to a situation like this. In
fact, you knew about this a couple of years ago.
MR. CHATFIELD: Well, your Honor --
THE COURT: You knew the allegation had been made
a couple of years ago. You only found out recently that she
admitted it.
MR. CHATFIELD: No. She -- we didn't find out
that she admitted it. We found out recently that she
perjured herself in her deposition when she denied it, when
she denied ever having been served or having any personal
knowledge of this litigation. And how could she have

fraudulently put this information on her credit application
when she never knew about the litigation? And then we
recently discovered documents which proved that she was
personally served with the litigation. We've attached them
to our --
THE COURT: Right.
MR. CHATFIELD: -- reply brief.
THE COURT: Yes, but I'm denying your motion
because it doesn't relate back to original complaint, and
that's what you briefed, and that's what you raised your
motion on.
So I will see you on May 31st, 9:00 o'clock for
trial.
MR. CHATFIELD: All right.
THE COURT: May 31st and June 1st, 9:00 o'clock.
Two-day trial. Do you still think it's going to take two
days, gentlemen?
MR. CHATFIELD: It could take up to two days, your
Honor.
THE COURT: Okay.
MR. STANLEY: I think one day, your Honor.
THE COURT: Okay. Well, we'll see. Mr. Stanley,
you'll prepare a brief response -- I mean a -- a brief
order.
MR. STANLEY: Order. I will, your Honor.

MR. CHATFIELD: Your Honor, I do need to bring up
one thing about the trial.
THE COURT: What's that, sir?
MR. CHATFIELD: I have another trial which has
just been moved in Los Angeles in Superior Court to the
middle of May which I'm hoping will be over --
THE COURT: Federal preemption. You're showing up
here on the 31st of May.
MR. CHATFIELD: All right.
THE COURT: That just got moved. Mine's been set
since February 1st.
MR. CHATFIELD: All right. Thank you, your Honor.
THE COURT: You tell them you have a federal trial
going on the 31st of May.
Do you have the instruction sheets for the
presentation of evidence and filing trial briefs?
MR. CHATFIELD: No, I don't.
THE COURT: I gave Mr. Stanley two copies on
February 1st.
MR. STANLEY: Yes.
THE COURT: Somehow you didn't join us that day,
Mr. Chatfield.
MR. CHATFIELD: I apologize, your Honor.
