In Morris v. Jones (1947) 329 U.S. 545, the Supreme Court held that a judgment obtained in a Missouri court against an insolvent Illinois insurer was entitled to full faith and credit as conclusive of the existence and amount of the claim in the Illinois liquidation proceedings. Although the order of the liquidation court issued before the entry of judgment in Missouri, that order was not raised as a defense in the Missouri litigation and it proceeded to judgment. The court held that judgment was "res judicata as to the nature and amount of petitioner's claim as against all defenses which could have been raised." (Id. at p. 552.)
