Pursuant to 11 U.S.C. § 110(1)(2), the court shall triple the amount of the fine imposed under Section 110(1)(1) if the court finds that a bankruptcy petition preparer "prepared a document for filing in a manner that failed to disclose the identity of the bankruptcy petition preparer." 11 U.S.C. § 110(1)(2)(D).
27. The Preparer failed to disclose his involvement in preparing the Debtor's petition in Case No. 2. Therefore, the statutory fine of $2,000, imposed herein, shall be tripled to $6,000.
