Description
The plaintiffs filed suit in the district court to enforce a state court judgment imposing a constructive trust on the defendants assets and awarding $72,000,000 in damages for breach of fiduciary duty and fraud. Holding that the state court case was not tried in accordance with a bankruptcy court remand order and that the state court proceedings leading to the judgment were conducted in violation of the automatic stay, the district court granted the defendants motion for summary judgment and declared the state court proceedings void. Because we hold that the parties complied with the bankruptcy courts remand order, that the stay was lifted, and that the resulting state court judgment was not void, we reverse the district courts judgment and remand the case.
