Caplan v. B-Line LLC (In re Kirkland)

Ruling
Bankruptcy appellate panel erred in reversing disallowance of claim where neither original creditor nor subsequent transferee filed required documentation.
Procedural posture

A predecessor to appellee creditor submitted a proof of claim in debtor's chapter 13 bankruptcy case, which was later converted to a chapter 7 case. Appellant trustee objected to the claim, and the bankruptcy court sustained the objection and disallowed the claim. A divided bankruptcy appellate panel of the Tenth Circuit (BAP) reversed the bankruptcy court's decision. The trustee appealed.
