1Opinion of the Court

POSNER, Circuit Judge.

Chase Manhattan brought this diversity-suit against Moore to foreclose its mortgage on his home, order the home sold, and, if the proceeds of the sale were insufficient to satisfy Chase’s debt, enter a deficiency judgment for the unpaid balance. Chase moved for summary judgment, which the district judge denied.

Moore appeals.
