p0683 Bankruptcy automatically stays state court actions against the debtor, but not actions brought by the debtor, so it does not extend the debtor's time to bring a cross claim or appeal from an adverse judgment in a cross claim; however, under the one final judgment rule, a stay extending time to appeal from judgment on the complaint against the debtor necessarily extends the debtor's time to appeal judgment on its cross claim in the same case.CitationECC CONSTRUCTION v OAK PARK CALABASAS HOA (Bankruptcy Stay) 122 CA4 994 [See: CCP 660; 11 USC 362; ECC v Oak Park Calabasas HOA 118 CA4 1031, P/AT 7/04; American Alternative v Windridge 42 CA4 551, T/AT 3/96]
