Funding Systems Asset Management Corp. v. Chemical Business Credit Corp. (In Re Funding Systems Asset Management Corp.)
United States Bankruptcy Court, W.D. Pennsylvania
Decided March 12, 1990No. 19-20754PublishedCited by 19 opinions
1Opinion of the Court
BERNARD MARKOVITZ, Bankruptcy Judge.
COMMENT
There is a story that two of the greatest figures in our law, Justice Holmes and Judge Learned Hand, had lunch together and afterward, as Holmes began to drive off in his carriage, Hand, in a sudden onset of enthusiasm, ran after him, crying, “Do justice, sir, do justice.” Holmes stopped the carriage and reproved Hand: “That is not my job. It is my job to apply the law.” 1
We are confident that this decision is in accord with the applicable law. We are less confident that it metes out perfect justice.
