Section 157(b)(1) does not treat insurance coverage claims between non-debtors as core proceedings when their resolution has no direct impact on the bankruptcy case.
Mt. McKinley Insurance v. Corning Inc. · filed 2005-02-16(b)(1)
As in United States Lines, the pre-petition execution of the insurance contracts suggests that this lawsuit is not core to PCC’s reorganization. Moreover, unlike United States Lines, the debtor is not involved in this lawsuit, and plaintiffs here seek to adjudicate the rights of non-debtors only. Thus, the adjudication of the claims in this lawsuit will have no direct impact on PCC’s bankruptcy proceedings.Read the full opinion on CourtListener →
