The following excerpt is from Buffalow v. U.S., 109 F.3d 570 (9th Cir. 1997):
Buffalow ran afoul of this body of law when he made a deliberate, if in many ways sound, decision to pay other creditors while he knew that the trust fund liability was outstanding and unpaid. See Purcell v. United States, 1 F.3d 932, 938 (9th Cir.1993). He does not deny that he did just that.
