U.S. Court of Appeals Case No: 07-2438
and No: 07-2480
U.S. District Court for the District of South Dakota
[PUBLISHED] [Shepherd, Author, with Riley and Gruender, Circuit Judges]
Bankruptcy - prepayment. Bank's loan to TSE was paid off following
bankruptcy and sale of business. Bankruptcy court granted bank's motion
for 2% prepayment penalty for pre-petition under section 502(b) but
denied the motion under section 506(b). The district court reversed the
grant under section 502(b). Because there was no agreement regarding
the imposition of a prepayment penalty under any set of facts, the
bankruptcy court's decision is reversed and the applicability of sections
502(b) or 506(b) need not be addressed.
