United States First Circuit


In Re Weaver, 088046

In a decision involving an attempted appeal from a bankruptcy court decision under the Bankruptcy Abuse Prevention and Consumer Protection Act of 2005, petition for leave to appeal is denied and appeal is terminated where: 1) without resolving the jurisdictional question, court exercised its discretion under section 158(d)(2)(A) to deny leave to appeal; and 2) allowing the appeal to proceed may not have served the purposes of section 158(d)(2), i.e. a rapid and definitive resolution of the underlying legal question.
