ORDER

REINHARD, District Judge.

INTRODUCTION

The State of Illinois, Department of Lottery (Department), appellant, seeks review of the bankruptcy judge’s order granting summary judgment in favor of Nancy S. Marchiando, appellee, 138 B.R. 548. The order declared that appellee’s debt to the Department, which arose from the defalcation of lottery proceeds, was dischargeable. The bankruptcy judge held that appellee was not a fiduciary under 11 U.S.C. § 523(a)(4) because no express trust was created by the terms of the Illinois Lottery Law, Ill.Rev.Stat.1989, ch. 120, 111151 et seq.
