 99-1127 -- Grandote Country Club Co. V. Grandote International Limited Liability Co. -- 06/14/2001
The district court granted summary judgment in favor of defendants, concluding that Japanese law did not apply to this case, that the Tax Deeds were properly issued, and that there was no evidence of fraudulent transfer.
The district court subsequently amended its judgment to dismiss all claims with prejudice, and thus there is no longer any doubt that the judgment is appealable and that we have jurisdiction under 28 U.S.C. "We review the grant or denial of summary judgment de novo, applying the same legal standard used by the district court.
Kojima's brief on this point is, to put it delicately, opaque; Kojima seems to argue that the transfer by Tax Deeds violates CUFTA merely because it constitutes a transfer made by a "debtor" (i.e., Grandote Colorado) at a time a "creditor" (i.e., Kojima) had a claim to the property.

But according to a statement Kojima made at the time, and based on a document submitted to verify his funds, Kojima claimed he was being bankrolled by a shadowy off-shore corporation registered in the British Isle of Jersey.
