There were no operations and no income, but there was about $1.5 million in cash in the bank. A creditor filed a motion for conversion of the chapter 11 case to chapter 7 for \u201ccause\u201d under Section 1112(b)(1).<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Bankruptcy Judge Christopher M. Klein denied the conversion motion without prejudice to renewal.
