NOTE: The nature of debt is business if the debtor is a corporation or partnership, or if debt related to the operation of a business predominates. Nonbusiness debt includes consumer

debt, as defined in Section 101 of the U.S. Bankruptcy code, or other debt that the debtor indicates is not consumer debt or business debt. Because the bankruptcy database is continually

updated, the numbers in this table may not match those in previously published tables. The United States territorial courts assume the jurisdiction of United States bankruptcy courts within

their respective territories, which do not have separate bankruptcy courts.

1 Other Chapters includes cases filed under chapters 9 (0), 12 (33) and 15 (34) as well as Section 304 (0).

2 The United States Bankruptcy Court for Arkansas (AR) includes both the Eastern and Western Districts of Arkansas.
