1Opinion of the Court

CUDAHY, Circuit Judge.

The question on appeal is whether the bankruptcy court properly exercised its summary jurisdiction in ordering the Illinois Department of Agriculture (the “Department”) to turn over the proceeds realized from the Department’s sale of grain taken from the possession of John Gorenz, the bankrupt in this action. Because the record before us is insufficient to support the bankruptcy court’s summary adjudication of the Department’s claims, we reverse the district court’s affirmance of the bankruptcy court’s turnover order and remand for further proceedings.1
