In the case of In re Eagle, ___ F.3d ___, 2007 WL 2278902 (C.A.8(Ark.)), the court held that under the circumstances the Chapter 7 Debtor did not have a constitutional right to counsel. The Debtor had filed a pro se Chapter 7 case. As the Debtor failed to file the necessary schedules and statements, the court dismissed his case. The court granted the Debtor's motion to reinstate his case and advised the Debtor to obtain counsel. In subsequent proceedings, the court sustained a Creditor's exemption objection. The Debtor appealed the order sustaining the exemption objection.
