Franklin v. Four Media Co. (In Re Mike Hammer Productions, Inc.)
United States Bankruptcy Appellate Panel for the Ninth Circuit
1Opinion of the Court
OPINION
MONTALI, Bankruptcy Judge.
Petitioning creditor Jeff Franklin (“Franklin”) in these involuntary eases appeals from the bankruptcy court’s identical orders in the four above-captioned involuntary bankruptcy cases (collectively, the “Damages Order”) awarding damages in the single amount of $25,969.00 against him and in favor of creditors Four Media Company and Anderson Video Company (collectively, “Non-Petitioning Creditors”). Franklin argues that Non-Petitioning Creditors lack standing to seek damages under Section 303(i)(2). 1 We agree. The Damages Order will be REVERSED.
