Halsey Minor, the CNET Networks Inc. founder who filed for bankruptcy last month -- five years after selling the company for $1.8 billion -- lost access to court protection after missing a deadline for handing in documents.

The personal Chapter 7 bankruptcy case was dismissed yesterday by the U.S. Bankruptcy Court in Los Angeles over a “failure to file schedules, statements and/or plan,” according to an order posted in the online docket for the case. The documents include detailed lists of assets and explanations of a debtor’s state of affairs, which are required by judges.
