Date Filed Document Text
November 14, 2012 Opinion or Order Filing 5 OPINION: These are three related motions for leave to appeal an August 1, 2011 order of the United States Bankruptcy Court for the Southern District of New York. The underlying action is a proceeding by Irving Picard, trustee for the substantively consolidated Securities Investor Protection Act ("SIPA") liquidation of Benard L. Madoff Investment Securities LLC ("BLMIS") and Bernard L. Madoff ("Madoff'), seeking to recover various sums transferred to the defendants by BLMIS. Cohmad Securities Corporation and various individual defendants filed the first motion and the Jalon and Berman motions are joinders in the Cohmad motion. The issue for appeal is whether the Bankruptcy Court erred by failing to apply Federal Rule of Civil Procedure 9(b) to claims for constructive fraudulent transfer under New York law and the United States Bankruptcy Code, where such claims are based on allegations of fraud. For the foregoing reasons, the motions are denied. (Signed by Judge Thomas P. Griesa on 11/14/2012) (ft)
