1Opinion of the Court

MEMORANDUM OPINION

A. BENJAMIN GOLDGAR, Bankruptcy Judge.

This matter is before the court on the motion of Clear Channel Outdoor, Inc. (“Clear Channel”) for summary judgment on its adversary complaint against debtor James Nikitas. Clear Channel contends that facts determined in an arbitration render Nikitas’ debt to Clear Channel non-dischargeable as a debt based on fraud, see 11 U.S.C. § 528(a)(2)(A), and that Nikitas is collaterally estopped to relitigate those facts. For the reasons that follow, Clear Channel’s motion for summary judgment is denied.
