OPINION OF THE COURT

RENDELL, Circuit Judge.

Eastern Minerals & Chemicals Co., a creditor of Delta Carbonate Inc., appeals an order of the District Court precluding it from seeking recovery from Delta’s sole shareholder, Gary Mahan, on an alter ego theory because Eastern should have pursued this claim in the context of Delta’s bankruptcy case. We conclude that the District Court misapplied claim preclusion in this bankruptcy setting. Therefore, we will reverse the District Court’s order granting Mahan’s motion for summary judgment.

Eastern also appeals the District Court’s denial of its motion…
