OPINION

VOLINN, Chief Judge:

The Chapter 7 debtor, Norman Tilbury, appeals the granting of summary judgment to Max W. Walden, on a complaint to determine nondischargeability, pursuant to 11 U.S.C. § 523(a)(6), of a $224,501.72 debt. The court took judicial notice of the detailed findings of fact, conclusions of law, and judgments entered on November 27, 1967 and August 28, 1984 by the Superior Court of the State of California for Contra Costa County, and concluded that they constituted such clear and convincing proof of a nondischargeable intentional tort as to warrant summary judgment.
