OPINION

EMIL F. GOLDHABER, Bankruptcy Judge:

The cases before us, which are being jointly administered, arise from objections made at the audit of the successor trustee's fifth and final account. The cases are almost ten years old and the issues raised by those objecting to the account having been raised and finally ruled upon heretofore, it should be crystal clear to any impartial observer that the principle of res judicata is applicable.
