Fact Pattern 23-1
Bailey has been making large credit card purchases for months. He has also borrowed
money from Jack and Susan, friends of his, so that he can continue his rather lavish
lifestyle involving foreign travel. He borrowed $1,000 from Jack and $2,000 from
Susan. He also borrowed $500 from his mother. Bailey finally decides that he can no
longer continue to make even the minimum payments on his credit cards and considers
filing for bankruptcy. He does, however, want to pay some of his debts. Bailey,
therefore, puts off the credit card companies and saves his cash. He starts the New Year
off by paying on January 1 all funds owed to his mother. He was particularly concerned
about repaying his mother because he still lived at home and had some concerns that
she would kick him out of the house if he did not repay her. Then, on June 1 he pays
Jack; and on July 4, he pays Susan. Bailey proceeds to file bankruptcy on August 2
because he has repaid anyone he really cares about. He plans to complete the
bankruptcy and move to the Caribbean.

the loans from Jack and Susan?

made within 90 days of the filing for bankruptcy.
