Buddy Ayers Construction Inc. should prevent debtors from pursuing their lawsuits when they do not list them in bankruptcy proceedings, even if they were unaware they were supposed to. At issue is whether courts should balance the need to maintain judicial integrity with the need to protect citizens from disproportionate punishment. The case stems from a lawsuit filed by Thomas Keathley against Buddy Ayers Construction (BAC) over a 2021 auto accident involving a company vehicle. When he filed for Chapter 13 bankruptcy, he did not list this lawsuit.]]>
