Question Presented (OCR Extract)

QUESTIONS PRESENTED FOR REVIEW Whether it is unconstitutional and impermissible for a court to usurp Congress’ authority by reducing the strict standing and jurisdictional requirements for involuntary bankruptcy established by Congress in 11 U.S.C. § 303? Whether a party who successfully forces a debtor into involuntary’ bankruptcy, by representing to the bankruptcy court that there is no bona fide dispute as to that debtor’s liability, upon which the bankruptcy court relies to enter its adjudication, is precluded by judicial estoppel from ignoring its representation and that adjudication to bring a subsequent litigation in a different court claiming the same liability against another entity?
