Robby Mowrey v. Chevron Pipeline Co.
Annotate this CaseAppellants Robby and Kim Mowrey appealed the dismissal of their negligence action against Respondent Chevron Pipe Line Co. The district court ruled that because the Mowreys failed to disclose this claim as an asset in their Chapter 7 bankruptcy proceeding, they were judicially estopped from pursuing it against Chevron. In the alternative, the district court ruled that the Mowreys lacked standing as the real party in interest to prosecute their claim because it belonged to the bankruptcy trustee as an asset of the bankruptcy estate. The Mowreys argued on appeal that the district court erred in granting summary judgment. Finding no reversible error, the Supreme Court affirmed.
