In re Snow, 201 B.R. 968 (Bankr. C.D.Cal. 1996)

Creditor, seeking to foreclose on property, sought relief from automatic stay and requested that order be made binding on co-owners and transferees of property for 180 days, so that automatic stay would not further impede creditor's foreclosure. The Bankruptcy Court, Samuel L. Bufford, J., held that:

1. in rem order, which operated as equitable servitude on property to preclude Chapter 7 debtor and his successors from using automatic stay for 180 days to prevent foreclosure, would be entered, and
2. order would not be binding on property's nondebtor co-owners, who had not received notice and who were not before bankruptcy court.
