Morris v. St. John Natl Bank (In re Haberman)
Feb
10
2006
Ruling
Bank was ordered to turn over to the trustee an amount equal to the value of a car as of the day the debtors filed for bankruptcy, leaving the bank with a general unsecured claim against the bankruptcy estate for the same amount.
Procedural posture
Plaintiff trustee sued defendant bank, seeking to avoid the bank's lien on the debtors'car. After the debtor paid off the balance the debtor owed, the bankruptcy court determined that the bank's lien was unperfected and the trustee could avoid it. The trustee then sought a determination in the postpetition payments.
