In re DeVries, Case No. 89-01870-7 (07/22/1991) -- Judge Thomas S. Utschig

Case Summary:
Anti-discrimination provision of § 525(a) can apply to the denial by the ASCS/CCC of a request to participate in the Conservation Reserve Program.  CRP contracts are executory contracts for purposes of § 365.

Denial of debtors' application to participate in the CRP program was not done "solely" on the basis of their bankruptcy and was therefore not in violation of anti-discrimination provision of § 525.
