The Court, having reviewed the pleadings of the parties, and all other matters of relevance before it, and being well and sufficiently advised, finds and orders as follows with respect to the foregoing motions: 1. MY ICIS, Inc. ("MYICIS") was an online money service

business that Wayne Hicks owned and operated for the purpose of helping people avoid paying federal income taxes. During the

relevant time period, Hicks MYICIS maintained a deposit account in the name of MYICIS at now-defunct ANB Financial, N.A.("ANB"). Plaintiff gave Hicks over $500,000 to deposit into the MYICIS account at ANB. Despite his repeated demands, Plaintiff was

unable to get his money back from Hicks and/or MYICIS. 2. This case involves the competing claims of Plaintiff and

Intervener Bentley Investments of Nevada, LLC ("Bentley") to the remaining funds in the MYICIS account that was once held at ANB. 3. The Court notes that it has presided over four other

matters involving MYICIS and Hicks -- JPMorgan Chase Bank, N.A. v. My MYICIS, Inc., et al, Case No. 07-cv-30311; N.R. Smith v.

On July 28, 2008, the Court entered a default judgment against MYICIS, Hicks and another separate defendant and, after a hearing on the matter, awarded damages against all defendants in the amount of $176,940.72.

MYICIS, INC., Case No. 08-cv-30552; United States v. Hicks, Case No. 08-cr-500863; and United States v. Hicks, Case No. 10-cv30264. 4. The parties have agreed that this case can be disposed

of by summary judgment and, thus, no trial date has been set. Plaintiff and Bentley have filed motions for summary judgment that are ripe for the Court's review. 5. Summary judgment should be granted when the record,

viewed in the light most favorable to the nonmoving party, and giving that party the benefit of all reasonable inferences, shows that there is no genuine issue of material fact and the movant is entitled to judgment as a matter of law. States, 31 F.3d 696 (8th Cir. 1994). See Walsh v. United

Summary judgment is not

appropriate unless all the evidence points toward one conclusion,

Smith v. MYICIS is currently stayed. N.R. Smith sought leave to intervene in this case and, on September 2, 2009, the Court granted N.R. Smith permission to intervene. However, N.R. Smith never filed a complaint in intervention and, thus, N.R. Smith is not a party in this cause. On February 12, 2009, this Court sentenced Mr. Hicks to five years in prison, a $25,000 fine and $7,000,000 in restitution. On April 9, 2010, the parties entering into a Stipulated Judgment of Permanent Injunction against MYICIS in which this Court permanently enjoined MYICIS from, inter alia, engaging in any activity that is designed to assist taxpayers in evading federal income tax liabilities.

The burden is on the moving party

to demonstrate the non-existence of a genuine factual dispute; however, once the moving party has met that burden, the nonmoving party cannot rest on its pleadings, but must come forward with facts showing the existence of a genuine dispute. See City of

Mt. Pleasant, Iowa v. Associated Electric Co-op, 838 F.2d 268 (8th Cir. 1988). 6. * The following material facts are undisputed: On September 20, 2006, Bentley agreed to loan up to The purpose of

Through the Control Agreement, Bentley was granted a interest in Hick's ANB bank account No. 50024280

and wired the same to ANB to be deposited in the Account. * On April 9, 2007, Plaintiff obtained a judgment in the

total amount of $590,650.88 against Hicks, MYICIS, and the other separate defendants. On April 10, 2007, Plaintiff filed a

Petition for Registration of Foreign Judgment in the Circuit Court for Carroll County, Arkansas, and, thereafter, registered the Missouri judgment in Arkansas. * On May 31, 2007, Plaintiff filed a Writ of Garnishment Thereafter, on

in the Circuit Court of Carroll County, Arkansas.

June 1, 2007, Plaintiff served a Writ of Garnishment on ANB. * On June 6, 2007, ANB filed its answer to Plaintiff's

Writ of Garnishment, stating that it would not pay the writ for the following reason: According to ANB, the funds in the Account were subject to a September 26, 2006 contractual agreement, referred to as the "Reserve Fund and Security Agreement" (the "Security Agreement"), between the deposit account holders ­- Wayne and Lori Hicks, d/b/a MYICIS ­- and ANB.

ANB answered that, pursuant to the Security Agreement, the Account was to maintain a minimum balance of $1,000,000 and that this minimum balance was to be used by ANB to pay any "return items, debits, or other charges" placed against the Account. ANB further answered that it did not possess sufficient funds to satisfy Plaintiff's Writ ­- as the Account's was less than the $1,000,000 reserve fund. time the writ was served, the Account balance

See Hearing Transcript at p. 5 (document #23-12). Counsel for ANB further stated that, from that amount, it paid some liability claims.

Plaintiff asserts he is entitled to be paid in cash pursuant to his writ of garnishment because he is a third-party

beneficiary to the Security Agreement between Hicks d/b/a MYICIS and ANB.

8

(a)

A third party can bring a claim for damages from a

breach of contract "when there is substantial evidence of a clear intention to benefit that third party." 358 Ark. 238, 244-45 (Ark. 2004). Perry v. Baptist Health,

"It is not necessary that the

person be named in the contract if he is a member of a class of persons sufficiently described or designated in the contract." Id. at 245. (b) The full text of the relevant paragraphs in the

Security Agreement is as follows: 1. ICIS authorizes ANB to hold and retain a lien against $1,000,000 of the amounts collected and held in the account as a reserve fund for any returned items, debits or other charges placed against the account or ICIS. 2. ICIS authorizes ANB to deduct and pay from the reserve fun any returned items, debits or other charges placed against ICIS on the account. *** 4. The $1,000,000 reserve fund shall be retained as security by ANB for so long as the account is held by ICIS and for a reasonable time thereafter to be determined by ANB for purposes of ensuring the obligations of ICIS are satisfied in full pursuant to this Agreement and as holder of the account. (c) Mr. Hicks has submitted an Affidavit in this matter

attesting to the fact that "[a]lmost all of the funds held in [the Account] belong to [Plaintiff]" and that Plaintiff's current claim to the monies in the Account "falls directly within the

9

original purpose of the security agreement." (Affidavit, document #2-13). The Court does not find Mr. Hicks' Affidavit to be credible given his motive. In other words, if the Court agrees with

Plaintiff and orders the funds in the Account to be paid to Plaintiff, then a substantial amount of the judgment currently pending against Mr. Hicks would be satisfied without Mr. Hicks having to pay any money himself. (d) At a state-court hearing on Plaintiff's writ of

garnishment, ANB's counsel described the nature and the purpose of the Security Agreement as follows: There was a large amount of money in the account and it was very active. The bank, however, became very concerned about some of the suspicious activities that were involved with regard to the account. IRS' intervention, calls from customers of ICIS, which they could not respond to. Because of their concerns, they obtained a contract from ICIS, whereby one million dollars of this account would be held as reserve. And the purpose for that was to insure the bank that, if there were claims or liabilities imposed upon the bank because of ICIS' activities, the bank could pay claims that were against it, and reimburse itself for expenses. (Statements by Paul Davidson, counsel for ANB, Hearing Transcript of August 7, 2007, document #23-12, p. 4). Plaintiff relies on these comments to support his position that his writ of garnishment was a "claim" or "liability" of ICIS

10

that was contemplated by the Security Agreement and, thus, should have been paid by ANB when the writ was served pursuant to the terms of the Security Agreement. (e) After a review of the record in this case, the Court

finds that the purpose of the Security Agreement is not entirely clear. Plaintiff has the burden, however, to establish that the

undisputed facts show the Security Agreement was entered into with "a clear intention" to benefit him. Perry, 358 Ark. at 244.

The Court finds that Plaintiff has failed to meet his burden. (f) if Nonetheless, the Court agrees with the FDIC that, even could establish that he was a third-party

Plaintiff could make out a claim against the FDIC for ANB's and/or the FDIC's Plaintiff failure "is to pay just him a under creditor the Security the

(document

Plaintiff asserts that, under Arkansas law governing writs of garnishments, a garnishee must retain possession of all

property of the debtor in his hands, or otherwise he will be held liable to the judgment creditor for the full value of the

property, or for all monies due.

Plaintiff asserts that the

FIRREA does not preempt Arkansas garnishment law and the fact that the FDIC took control over ANB does not alter its obligation to pay Plaintiff pursuant to the writ of garnishment served on ANB. Even if the Court found that the writ of garnishment

attached to the Account at the time it was served, and remains enforceable after the FDIC took over as Receiver of ANB, neither ANB nor the FDIC are obligated to pay Plaintiff because ­- as set forth in detail below -- Bentley's claim to the funds in the Account has priority over Plaintiff's claim. Thus, the Court

declines to address this issue and the issue of the applicability of 12 U.S.C. § 1825 of the FIRREA6.

Section 1825 of the FIRREA states that "[n]o property of the Corporation [meaning the FDIC] shall be subject to levy,

parties who have made a claim to the Account are Plaintiff and Bentley. Bentley argues that it has a perfected security interest in the Account and that a perfected security interest has priority over a lien creditor such as Plaintiff. Plaintiff argues that

Bentley did not perfect its security interest in the Account and, therefore, Plaintiff has priority over Bentley.

in the Account under A.C.A. § 4-9-104(a)(2) through "control" over the Account. Specifically, Bentley points to the Control Under the Control

The Court finds that, under (document Control

Agreement, Bentley had the right to direct disposition of the funds in the Account without further consent by MYICIS. In order

for this to constitute "control," ANB had to agree to those provisions.

(document #22-9). (d) * Based on the foregoing, Bentley asserts that: Bentley had control over the Account as that term is

Plaintiff

asserts

that

a

perfected security interest in the Account and that Plaintiff's interest as a lien creditor takes priority over Bentley's

interest as an unperfected secured creditor. the following bases for his contention: *

Plaintiff asserts

First, Plaintiff asserts that the Control Agreement ­-

which is the document that grants to Bentley a security interest in the Account ­- is undated and, therefore, invalid. The Court is not persuaded by this argument. Bentley has

provided the Court with no authority for his position that the Control Agreement must be dated. Counsel for Bentley has

provided an Affidavit to this Court stating that the Control Agreement was executed by the parties in February 2007 (document #22-7). Although Plaintiff disputes this fact, Plaintiff has Further, there is

offered no evidence to contradict this fact.

no dispute that the Control Agreement was, in fact, signed by Bentley and Hicks d/b/a MYICIS, which is all that is required under A.C.A. § 4-9-102(7) to "authenticate" the agreement. * Second, Plaintiff asserts that ANB did not properly

authenticate the Control Agreement as required by A.C.A. § 4-9102(a)(7)(A). Plaintiff argues that the "Acknowledgment" that

ANB signed was not the original acknowledgment contained in the

16

Control Agreement, but was a separate document that ANB created and executed. The Court is also not persuaded by this argument. Under

A.C.A. § 4-9-104(a)(2), a secured party gains control over a deposit account if "the debtor, secured party, and bank have agreed in an authenticated record. . . ." Under A.C.A. §4-9-

102(7) & (70), the "Acknowledgment" that ANB signed qualifies as an authenticated record because "authenticate" means "to sign." Ark. Code Ann. § 4-9-102(7). * Third, Plaintiff asserts that, under the terms of the

Acknowledgment, Bentley did not take "control" over the Account because MYICIS did not have the ability to grant to Bentley control over the Account as MYICIS had previously granted to ANB a security interest in the Account. any security interest that to Bentley ANB's Thus, Bentley asserts that had in the Account was

Under the Uniform Commercial Code, there is nothing a debtor from creating more than one security

17

that requires a creditor who seeks to perfect a security interest by control under A.C.A. § 4-9-104(a)(2) to obtain "unqualified" control. Indeed, the Code expressly contemplates a situation where more than one party has a security interest in a deposit account, providing that "security interests perfected by control under § 4-9-314 rank according to priority in time of obtaining control." A.C.A. § 4-9-327(2). Therefore, by granting to ANB a security interest in the Account, MYICIS was not prevented from granting to Bentley a second security interest in the Account and Bentley could take "control" over the Account even if ­ as was the case here ­ ANB's security interest in the account had priority over Bentley's security interest. * Fourth, Plaintiff asserts that Bentley lacks standing

Bentley says that it should not be required to exhaust

its administrative remedies because it does not have any claim to assert against the FDIC. initially claimed an As Bentley points out, although ANB in the Account, the FDIC, as

interest

Receiver for ANB, no longer claims any interest in the Account. Pulaski Bank has interpled the insured portion of the account, $100,000, into the registry of the court and the FDIC has

requested to interplead the remainder of the account in the form of a Receiver's Certificate. Thus, the only two parties that

claim an interest in the Account are Plaintiff and Bentley. Further, the Court notes that the FDIC -- who determines the claims process -- has not asserted that Bentley must exhaust its administrative remedies before it can assert its interest in the Account. Further, while Plaintiff was forced to exhaust his remedies, Plaintiff has brought specific and

administrative

direct claims of breach of contract against the FDIC ­ Bentley has made no such claim and is only asserting an interest in an Account that the FDIC has disclaimed any interest in. The Court

19

finds that Plaintiff and Bentley are not similarly situated with respect to the claims process. Therefore, the Court finds that Bentley is not required to file an administrative claim with the FDIC before it can assert its interest in the Account. (f) For the reasons set forth above, the Court finds that,

as between Plaintiff and Bentley, Bentley has a security interest in the Account that was perfected as of February 26, 2007, which was the date the Acknowledgment by ANB was signed. Because

Plaintiff did not become a lien creditor until June 1, 2007, after Bentley perfected its in security the interest, is Bentley's to

Plaintiff's interest in the Account. See Ark. Code Ann. § 4-9317(a)(2). Therefore, because Bentley has a priority in the Account, Bentley is entitled to be paid the $100,000 insured portion of the Account as well as to receive the $498,712.78 uninsured

While it does not appear that the Eighth Circuit Court of Appeals has addressed the issue, the courts that have addressed it have held that the FDIC may use a Receivership Certificate to pay creditors and that is the only relief to which they are entitled.
