Bankruptcy: Standing-Jurisdiction
Staff Report//April 27, 2020//
Where parties to a bankruptcy proceeding disputed whether claims against the creditors were barred by an injunction against claims that interfered with the implementation of the bankruptcy plan, the dismissal of the federal claims for lack of standing is affirmed, and the court thus lacked supplemental jurisdiction over the state law claims.
Judgment is affirmed.
