113169P.pdf   06/29/2012  Jaysen McCleary  v.  Reliastar Life Insurance Co.
   U.S. Court of Appeals Case No:  11-3169
   U.S. District Court for the Southern District of Iowa - Des Moines   
   [PUBLISHED] [Wollman, Author, with Colloton, Circuit Judge, and
   Hickey, District Judge]
   Civil case. McCleary, as sole beneficiary and administrator of an estate,
   had the authority to sell the estate's interest in its claims against
   defendant, and the plain language of the asset sold in the bankruptcy
   proceeding makes it clear that he chose to do exactly that; as a result, the
   district court did not err in finding that defendant, which purchased the
   asset, now owns the claims brought against it.
