Rule 13 Counterclaim Cross Claim

RULE 13–COUNTERCLAIM AND CROSS-CLAIM

In re Adbox, Inc., 488 F.3d 836 (9th Cir. 2007)

A trustee who has brought a preference action on behalf of the estate is not an “opposing

party,” and thus counterclaims that could have been brought against the debtor prior to its

bankruptcy were properly dismissed.
