OPINION
MURRAY M. SCHWARTZ, District Judge.
This matter presents an interface of the Federal Bankruptcy Act with the federal securities law; raising the unassuming yet vexing question of whether claims in a private damages action brought pursuant to Section 10(b) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, 15 U.S.C. § 78j(b); Rule 10b-5, 17 C.F.R. § 240.10b-5, promulgated thereunder; and New York General Business Law § 352-c (McKinney 1968), are provable in bankruptcy. A statement of the salient facts is essential to an understanding of the resolution of this issue.
