Ruling
Bankruptcy court lacked jurisdiction over debtor's prepetition federal action to rescind mortgage
Procedural posture
A bankruptcy debtor brought an action to rescind a mortgage obligation, the action was removed to federal district court, and the debtor then filed a bankruptcy petition. The bankruptcy court considered its jurisdiction over the action in view of a district court order which appeared to conclude that the case was already before the bankruptcy court.
