Court of Appeals for the Fifth Circuit April 10, 1981, No. 79-3561 (Adams v. Evans)

GEE, Circuit Judge:

We are called upon in this appeal to consider for the first time — and, since the statute has now been replaced, probably for the last — the scope of a bankruptcy court’s authority to disallow a contingent or unliquidated claim under section 57(d) of the old Bankruptcy Act, 11 U.S.C. § 93(d) (1976) (repealed).

In 1974, Bryan Adams sold a duplex to Paul and Myneka Evans.
