Judge James E. Massey (Retired)
Debtor is the sole member of a limited liability company known as Law Group of Georgia by Stadler, LLC. Prior to the bankruptcy, N.C.A. Systems of Illinois, Inc. sued Debtor and the LLC and later obtained a judgment against the LLC. N.C.A. allegedly continued to collect receivables of the LLC after Debtor’s bankruptcy. Zamora, a creditor of Debtor, moved to hold N.C.A. in contempt for violating the automatic stay. Held: Motion denied. Property of LLC is not property of Debtor’s estate, and Zamora lacks standing to enforce the automatic stay.
