Automobile Fin. Corp. v. Gray (In re Gray)

Plaintiff creditor provided floor-plan financing to defendant debtor so that the debtor could purchase inventory for his used car business. Plaintiff filed a claim against debtor for non-dischargeability of amounts that were owed because the debtor wrote bad checks to the creditor. The creditor sought partial summary judgment, claiming that collateral estoppel prevented the debtor from relitigating his liability for the eight bad checks.
