Equitable Bank, N.a., Defendant-appellee, 912 F.2d 464 (4th Cir. 1990)

David P. Stratton, trustee in bankruptcy for First American Mortgage Co. (FAMCO), appeals the district court's grant of summary judgment in favor of Equitable Bank, N.A. (Equitable). Specifically, Stratton asserts error in the district court's summary dismissal of the following claims: (1) that Equitable's deposit of unendorsed checks made payable to FAMCO constituted conversion under Maryland Law, Md.Com.Law Code Ann. Sec. 3-419(1) (c); (2) that certain payments on mortgages held by Equitable constituted fraudulent conveyances under Secs. 544(b), 548, and 550(a) of the bankruptcy code, 11 U.S.C. §§ 544(b), 548, and 550(a), and Md.Com.Law Code Ann. Sec. 15-201; (3) that certain collateral held by Equitable should have been equitably subordinated to the claims of other creditors, or alternatively that such collateral should be recharacterized as an unsecured capital contribution; (4) that Stratton should have been permitted to treat certain payments made by FAMCO to Equitable as voidable preferences under Secs. 547(b) and 550 of the bankruptcy code, 11 U.S.C. §§ 547(b) and 550(a); (5) that Equitable's setoff-counterclaim should have been dismissed for failure to file a proof-of-claim in bankruptcy court. We have reviewed the briefs of counsel, heard oral argument, and satisfied ourselves concerning the facts of the case and the applicable law. The district court properly granted summary judgment in favor of Equitable, explaining its reasons in a comprehensive memorandum opinion. See Stratton v. Equitable Bank, N.A., 104 B.R. 713 (D. Md. 1988). We affirm on the basis of that opinion.

AFFIRMED.
