Chattanooga businessman Allen Casey today filed a Chapter 7 bankruptcy petition in U.S. Bankruptcy Court.

“It’s a personal filing,” said Chattanooga attorney David Fulton.

The Chapter 7 petition estimated assets of $50,000 or less. Liabilities were estimated at between $1 million and $10 million.

The filing comes on top of a Chapter 11 bankruptcy filing Monday by a Casey company, River City Resort.

Earlier today, a civil trial involving Casey, who is facing a lawsuit from investors related to downtown riverfront property, was delayed.
