ORDER GRANTING DEFENDANT'S MOTION FOR WITHDRAWAL OF ORDER OF REFERENCE
JAMES LAWRENCE KING, Chief Judge.
Defendant, Marc Iacovelli, has filed a motion requesting that this court withdraw its order of reference to the United States Bankruptcy Court for the Southern District of Florida.[1] Plaintiff[2] brought the above *86 captioned case to recover a specific parcel of real property alleged to have been fraudulently transferred by the bankrupt company. In his responsive pleading, defendant claims he has a right to a jury trial which is unavailable in bankruptcy court; consequently, he requests that the action be referred to the district court. Plaintiff opposes defendant's asserted right to a jury trial in this matter. Thus, the court must decide whether there is a right to a jury trial in this case. For the following reason, the court finds that defendant is entitled to a jury trial.
The seventh amendment to the United States Constitution provides: "[i]n suit at common law, where the value in controversy shall exceed twenty dollars, the right to jury trial shall be preserved . . ." Thus, the dispositive issue here is whether plaintiff's action to recover alleged fraudulently conveyed real property is an action at common law.
From the time of Whitehead v. Shattuck, 138 U.S. 146, 151, 11 S.Ct. 276, 277, 34 L.Ed. 873 (1891), the Supreme Court has viewed actions for the recovery and possession of specific real property as actions at law. In Whitehead, the court stated that
where an action is simply for the recovery and possession of specific real or personal property, or for the recovery of a money judgement, the action is one at law. An action for the recovery of real property, including damages for withholding it, has always been of that class. The right which in this case the plaintiff wishes to assert is his title to certain real property; the remedy which he wishes to obtain is its possession and enjoyment; and in a contest over title both parties have a constitutional right to call a jury.
Id. In Pernell v. Southall Realty, 416 U.S. 363, 370-374, 94 S.Ct. 1723, 1727-1729, 40 L.Ed.2d 198 (1974), the Supreme Court affirmed its holding in Whitehead, supra, 138 U.S. 146, 11 S.Ct. 276, stating that "[t]his court has long assumed that actions to recover land, like actions for damages to a person or property, are actions at law triable to a jury." Id.
In the recent case of Granfinanciera, S.A. v. Nordberg, 492 U.S. ___, 109 S.Ct. 2782, 2792, 106 L.Ed.2d 26 (1989), the Supreme Court cited with approval its holding in Whitehead, supra, 138 U.S. 146, 11 S.Ct. 276. The issue before the court in Granfinanciera was whether a person who has not submitted a claim against a bankruptcy estate has a right to a jury trial when sued by the trustee in bankruptcy to recover an allegedly fraudulent monetary transfer. However, the court did not limit its discussion to the issue sub judice. The court reiterated that actions for the recovery of fraudulently conveyed real property, like actions for monetary damages, are actions at law triable to a jury. See id. at 2792 n. 5. In this case, the trustee relied upon In re Graham, 747 F.2d 1383 (11th Cir.1984) and Damsky v. Zavatt, 289 F.2d 46 (2d Cir.1961); both cases acknowledged the right to jury trial with respect to monetary claims, but not with respect to recovery of fraudulently conveyed real estate. The Supreme Court stated in unmistakable terms that "[b]oth of these holdings are questionable, moreover, to the extent that they are in tension with our decision in Whitehead v. Shattuck, 138 U.S. 146, 11 S.Ct. 276, 34 L.Ed. 873 (1891)." Id. The court reasoned that "[a]lthough there is scholarly support for the claim that actions to recover real property are quintessentially equitable actions . . . in Whitehead we stated: `where an action is simply for the recovery and possession of specific real or personal property, or for the recovery of a money judgment, the action is one at law.'" Granfinanciera, supra, 492 U.S. ___, 109 S.Ct. at 2792 n. 5 (quoting Whitehead v. Shattuck, supra, 138 U.S. 146, 151, 11 S.Ct. 276, 277) (emphasis added).
Here, the parties are contesting title to specific real property. The remedy which plaintiff seeks is the possession and enjoyment of the real property. Thus, in accord with the above precedents, this court must *87 hold that the suit here is an action at law triable to a jury. Consequently, this court's order of reference to the bankruptcy court is withdrawn. Accordingly, the court
ORDERS and ADJUDGES that defendant's motion be, and the same is hereby GRANTED.
DONE and ORDERED.
