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

• holding that we have jurisdiction only if the district court had appellate jurisdiction under § 158
• holding that a bankruptcy court’s disposition of “a discrete procedural unit within the embracive bankruptcy case . . . yields a final, appealable order”
• noting that bankruptcy courts often “resolve discrete controversies definitively while the umbrella bankruptcy case remains pending”
• explaining that the automatic stay “serves to maintain the status quo and prevent dismemberment of the estate during the pendency of the bankruptcy case”
• holding that adjudication of an order to grant relief from the automatic stay is a final, appealable order, while also noting generally that “[o]rders in bankruptcy cases qualify as ‘final’ when they definitively dispose of discrete disputes within the overarching bankruptcy case”
• observing that an order lifting the stay “is final in the sense that it completes litigation on the question and subjects the property to foreclosure action in state court”
