Butler v. Ormet Corp.

Jan
13
2009
Ruling
Time-barred wrongful discharge claim properly disallowed by bankruptcy court.
Procedural posture

Appellant, a claimant in a chapter 11 case, challenged a denial, by the Bankruptcy Court for the Southern District of Ohio, of a Fed. R. Civ. P. 59(e) motion for reconsideration of its denial of an earlier motion under 11 U.S.C.S. § 502(j) and Fed. R. Bankr. P. 3008 to set aside the order disallowing his claim against appellee debtors. At issue was whether the bankruptcy court had abused its discretion in so ruling.
