United States Eleventh Circuit


Kingsley v. Wetzel, 07-13488

A bankruptcy court order denying in part motion for summary judgment is affirmed over trustee's claims that: 1) where the bankruptcy court has found a fraudulent transfer avoidable under 11 U.S.C. section 548, neither 11 U.S.C. section 550(d) nor Fla. Stat. section 726.109(3) provide for the adjustment of the amount of recovery based on pre-petition repayments to the debtors or the debtors' creditors where there has been a finding of actual fraud; 2) the transferee must have accepted the funds in good faith in order to benefit from such an equitable adjustment; and 3) pre-petition repayments to the debtor do not legitimize fraudulent transfers.
