How courts have described this case

Verbatim parenthetical descriptions written by other courts when citing this decision. Ranked by citation-network relevance.

  • holding that there was \no conceivable effect on the administration of the estate” regardless of \whether [non-debtor] should be required to reimburse [second non-debtor] for any money [second non-debtor] pays to [debtor]” (internal quotation marks omitted)
  • explaining that the power to hear a “case under title 11” is the power to hear the “bankruptcy petition, itself”
  • “As several courts have observed, ‘a vast majority of cases find that “related to” jurisdiction is lacking in connection with third-party complaints.’ ”
  • “Thus, while § 157 gives bankruptcy courts the power to hear some cases, and the power to decide certain cases, it does not give those courts the power to hear cases that the district court could not hear.”
