1Opinion of the Court
McKAY, Circuit Judge.
This case involves an attempt by the Bank of Meeker (Bank) to avoid the discharge in bankruptcy of a debt owed to it by Billy Fred McGinnis (McGinnis). The Bank seeks refuge under 11 U.S.C. § 35 (1976), which excepts from discharge any liabilities for willful and malicious conversion. The Bankruptcy Court concluded that there had been no willful and malicious conversion and that the debt should be discharged.
