MEMORANDUM

KEITH M. LUNDIN, Bankruptcy Judge.

The issue in these consolidated adversary proceedings on motions to dismiss and for summary judgment is whether the confirmed Chapter 11 plan preserved preference actions from the res judicata effect of confirmation. Provisions in the Joint Plan that reserved avoidance actions under 11 U.S.C. § 547 are minimally sufficient for purposes of 11 U.S.C. § 1123(b)(3).
