Centam Partners LLC, a developer of residential property in Costa Rica named Hacienda Matapalo, filed a petition for Chapter 11 protection on Dec. 20 in Fort Lauderdale, Florida, and consented to dismissal of the bankruptcy on Feb. 3.
The secured lender UTA Capital LLC contended that the Chapter 11 petition was a "classic" case of a filing "in bad faith and without any prospect of reorganization."
The terms of dismissal prohibit Centam from filing another Chapter 11 petition anywhere within the U.S. for one year.
Centam indirectly owns a 625-acre parcel approved for residential development. The company also holds a concession to develop beachfront property. The property is on the west coast of Costa Rica.
The petition says assets are $10 million while liabilities total $7.5 million, including $6.9 million owing to secured lender UTA.
The case is In re Centam Partners LLC, 11-44590, U.S. Bankruptcy Court, Southern District of Florida (Fort Lauderdale).
