Court filings detail SBA debt alongside Georgia tax liabilities with a first teleconference on March 12.

Overview

  • Cole filed on Feb. 12 in the U.S. Bankruptcy Court for the Northern District of Georgia after a January Chapter 13 petition was dismissed on Feb. 11.
  • Her schedules list nearly $1.4 million in debt, including $1.2 million to the Small Business Administration and about $192,000 to the Georgia Department of Revenue, with part tied to a COVID‑era EIDL loan.
  • Reported assets total roughly $3.75 million, led by real estate holdings in Georgia and Baltimore, plus personal property and business equipment.
  • Slutty Vegan contracted from a peak of 14 branded locations, and the company website currently shows six remaining restaurants.
