United States v. Bbf Liquidating, Inc.
UNITED STATES of America, Appellant, v. BBF LIQUIDATING, INC., Appellee
Opinion
PER CURIAM:
The order dismissing the indictment against BBF Liquidating, Inc. is reversed. The district court is directed to reinstate the indictment.
The question is whether a dissolved California corporation can be federally indicted after dissolution. Here the district court seems to have followed United States v. Safeway Stores, Inc., 10 Cir., 140 F.2d 834 .
However, generally we elect to follow United States v. San Diego Grocers Association, Inc., S.D.Cal., 177 F.Supp. 352 , which reaches an opposite result from Safeway, supra.
We take San Diego Grocers Association to be a holding that a dissolved California corporation has the same vitality for all criminal prosecutions as it does for civil actions.
