In Re Rawson Food Service, Inc., Debtor. Flav-O-Rich, Inc., Cross-Appellee v. Rawson Food Service, Inc., Cross-Appellant

Court of Appeals for the Eleventh Circuit

Decided June 14, 1988No. 87-3466PublishedCited by 158 opinions

1Opinion of the Court

ANDERSON, Circuit Judge:

The sole issue raised in this bankruptcy appeal is whether, in a reclamation action brought pursuant to 11 U.S.C. § 546(c), the seller must prove as part of its prima facie case that the debtor possessed the goods the seller seeks to reclaim at the time the reclamation demand was made. We conclude that an implicit requirement of a § 546(c) reclamation claim is that the debtor must possess the goods when the reclamation demand is made and therefore that the seller must prove possession as part of its prima facie case. Thus, we affirm.
