UNITED STATES BANKRUPTCY COURT

EASTERN DISTRICT OF MICHIGAN

SOUTHERN DIVISION

In re: Case No. 26-47631 ROGER JOSEPH OTTOMAN, pro se, Chapter 12 Debtor. Judge Thomas J. Tucker _________________________________/ ROGER JOSEPH OTTOMAN, pro se, Plaintiff,

Adv. No. 26-4307

v.

AMERICAN MORTGAGE FUND I,

Defendant.

_________________________________/

ORDER DISMISSING ADVERSARY PROCEEDING

FOR LACK OF SUBJECT MATTER JURISDICTION

This adversary proceeding is before the Court on the Court's own motion, for review of subject matter jurisdiction. Today, the main bankruptcy case (Case No. 26-47631) was dismissed. Because the main bankruptcy case was dismissed, there is no longer pending any

"case under title 11" within the meaning of 28 U.S.C. §§ 1334(a), 157(a) and 157(b)(1). As a result, this adversary proceeding can no longer be considered a proceeding "arising under title 11, or arising in or related to" a case under title 11 within the meaning of 28 U.S.C. §§ 1334(b), 157(a) and 157(b)(1).

Similarly, this adversary proceeding is moot, due to the dismissal of the main bankruptcy case.

For these reasons, the Court concludes that this Court does not have subject matter

1

jurisdiction of this adversary proceeding, and so it must be dismissed. Accordingly,

IT IS ORDERED that this adversary proceeding is dismissed, without prejudice.

Signed on October 7, 2026
