ORDER DENYING DEFENDANT’S MOTION TO DISMISS
Wilhelmina M. Wright, United States District Judge
This matter is before the Court on Defendant ConAgra Foods, Inc.’s (“ConA-gra”) motion to dismiss for lack of subject-matter jurisdiction, pursuant to Federal Rule of Civil Procedure 12(h)(3). (Dkt. 30.) ConAgra argues that Plaintiff Chad Du-frene lacks standing to pursue the claims he asserts against ConAgra because such standing belongs exclusively to the trustee of Dufrene’s bankruptcy estate. For the reasons addressed below, the Court denies ConAgra’s motion.
