BOUDIN, Circuit Judge.

Most of the issues involved in American Bridge’s receivership and bankruptcy have been resolved, but a claim endures by bankruptcy trustee Lynne Riley (now appellant in this court) to recover from Decoulos for misfeasance while receiver that damaged the American Bridge estate.
