How later courts describe this case

  • holding that we have jurisdiction to consider an order denying a motion to withdraw the reference to a bankruptcy court only where the withdrawal order “merges into” the final order disposing of the underlying adversary action
  • discussing how the determination that a matter is. core “could” lead to the conclusion that efficiency concerns dictate that the matter be heard by the bankruptcy court
  • "[T]he process of deciding a motion to assume is one of the bankruptcy court placing itself in the position of the trustee or debtor-in-possession and determining whether assuming the contract would be a good business decision or a bad one."
