How later courts describe this case
- opining that the fact that evidence could have been presented on an issue in a prior suit, but was not, does not avoid the application of collateral estoppel
- “[0]nce an issue is raised and determined, it is the entire issue that is precluded, not just the particular arguments raised in support of it in the first case” (emphasis in original)
- “A new contention is not ... necessarily a new issue.”
