Court of Appeals for the Ninth Circuit

1Opinion of the Court
TANNER, District Judge:
On this appeal, we must decide whether an action to recover a $3.7 million preferential transfer made by DeLaurentiis Entertainment Group, Inc. (DEG) to Technicolor is timely filed under 11 U.S.C. § 546(a)(1) 1 of the Bankruptcy Code when brought by an estate within two years of the estate’s appointment, but more than two years after the commencement of the bankruptcy case.
When § 546(s) statute of limitations begins to run is a question we review de novo. Ford v. Union Bank (In re San Joaquin Roast Beef), 7 F.3d 1413, 1414 (9th Cir.1993).
