Corzin V. Fordu

This appeal, which arises from the bankruptcy court's disposition of an adversary proceeding initiated by a Chapter 7 trustee, comes to us by way of our circuit's Bankruptcy Appellate Panel ("BAP"). The appeal is brought by one of the defendants to the adversary proceeding, Julie A. Fordu, the former wife of the Debtor, Daniel Fordu. Ms. Fordu contends that the BAP erred by reversing two separate orders of the bankruptcy court: the first order granted partial summary judgment in her favor and the second order dismissed the trustee's complaint. We are urged by Ms. Fordu to reverse the decision of the BAP and affirm the bankruptcy court's orders. Ms. Fordu also seeks reversal of a third order of the bankruptcy court denying her motion for attorney fees and costs.*fn1
