OPINION
MICHAEL, Bankruptcy Judge.Rules make wonderful servants and terrible masters.
In the American system of justice, a litigant is entitled to his or her day in court. This rather unremarkable phrase lies at the center of the appeal presently before us. Our debtors were found to have committed acts of fraud sufficient to prohibit the entry of a discharge. The *365order denying their discharge was entered after all parties were given a full and fair opportunity to litigate the relevant issues. On appeal, debtors do not dispute the factual underpinnings that support the decision to deny their discharge. Instead, they contend that a poor choice of words by the bankruptcy trustee prohibited litigation upon the merits of the trustee’s claim, and that the bankruptcy court committed reversible error by granting the trustee relief from her misstep. Debtors also posit that a bankruptcy trustee does not have the right to distribute any of the estate’s assets to creditors prior to the conclusion of the bankruptcy case. These positions are meritless.
I. BACKGROUND1
James and Joyce Funderburgh (“Debtors”) owned a cleaning business incorporated in the 1990’s as Jim’s Maintenance and Sons, Inc. (“Jim’s Maintenance”), with each of them holding 50% of the stock. In 2000, Debtors formed Jim’s Commercial Cleaning LTD (“Jim’s Commercial”), again with each owning 50% of the corporation’s stock. In 2001, Jim’s Maintenance and/or Jim’s Commercial entered into contracts with Target Corporation to provide cleaning services to 68 stores located in six states.2 The Target contracts were summarily terminated in May 2006, effectively putting Debtors’ cleaning companies out of business.
Debtors and/or their corporations then became defendants in five different legal actions. Former employees of the cleaning business filed two lawsuits in Texas federal district courts alleging violations of the Fair Labor Standards Act. Creditor Arvest Bank instituted two lawsuits in Oklahoma district court for failure to make timely payments pursuant to a commercial credit card agreement and were granted judgment in both.3 Secured creditor JP Morgan Chase Bank filed a lawsuit in Oklahoma district court to recover payments due under four notes and to foreclose a mortgage.
Debtors sought Chapter 7 relief on February 27, 2007. Susan Manchester was appointed as Chapter 7 trustee (“Trustee”). Debtors’ schedules listed assets of approximately $114,000 and liabilities in excess of $2,000,000. Debtors claimed virtually all of their assets as exempt.
A. The Adversary Proceeding
On July 18, 2007, Trustee filed an adversary proceeding seeking to avoid and recover fraudulent transfers for the benefit of the estate and to deny Debtors a discharge (“Complaint”). Due to technological difficulties with electronic filing, Trustee’s Complaint was erroneously filed twice, and therefore docketed as two separate adversary proceedings numbered # 07-1143 and # 07-1144. Summons were issued in proceeding # 07-1144.4 The fol*366lowing day, the duplicate filing was brought to the Trustee’s attention by the clerk- of the bankruptcy court. In response, the Trustee’s office attempted to remedy the situation by filing a dismissal of proceeding # 07-1143 (“Dismissal”), which stated in its entirety, “COMES NOW Susan Manchester, Trustee, and hereby dismisses the above styled Adversary Proceeding with prejudice since it was fíled in duplicate.”5
On August 17, 2007, Debtors filed a motion to quash service in proceeding # 07-1144 and dismiss Trustee’s Complaint (“Motion to Dismiss”). Relying on principles of res judicata, collateral estoppel, and retraxit, Debtors argued Trustee’s Dismissal of proceeding # 07-1143 terminated the bankruptcy court’s jurisdiction and precluded Trustee from pursuing the same claims against the same parties in proceeding # 07-1144.6 None of the other defendants (the recipients of the allegedly fraudulent transfers) joined in the Motion to Dismiss. The Trustee responded by asking the bankruptcy court to set aside the Dismissal on equitable grounds (“Motion to Set Aside Dismissal”).7 On November 27, 2007, the bankruptcy court entered an order granting Trustee’s Motion to Set Aside Dismissal (“Order Setting Aside-Dismissal”).8
In the Order Setting Aside Dismissal, the bankruptcy court described the- circumstances that led to the filing of the Dismissal:
According to Trustee, on July 18, 2007, her assistant was in the process of electronically filing an adversary complaint against [Debtors] when the CM/ EOF website quit responding. Trustee’s assistant “had no idea the ... Adversary Complaint had been filed because the website ' did not respond.” She closed the website then logged in again and started the filing procedure anew, with the same adversary complaint. The next day, Deputy Court Clerk Penny Wallis contacted Trustee’s assistant, inforining her that duplicate adversary proceedings had been electronically filed. The case numbers for these proceedings were- 07-1143 and 07-1144. That same day, Trustee’s assistant electronically filed a Dismissal With Prejudice in case number 07-1143, “since it was filed in duplicate.”9
The bankruptcy court found it “abundantly clear from the pleadings, affidavits, and circumstances, that what" is involved here is simply a computer glitch, compounded, perhaps, by operator panic.”10 The bankruptcy court concluded that “it would be wholly inequitable to require Trustee to be bound by her Dismissal With Prejudice, when it is patently obvious that the sole intent was to correct a duplicate filing.”11 The bankruptcy court denied the Motion to Dismiss, allowing the adversary proceeding to proceed to trial. Debtors then filed a motion to reconsider, which the bankruptcy court rejected, noting that “denying Trustee the right to pursue her several *367causes of action would be manifestly unjust and conflict with the purpose of the Bankruptcy Code.”12 Debtors attempted to appeal the bankruptcy court’s Order Setting Aside Dismissal to this Court, but the appeal was dismissed as interlocutory.13
Trial of the adversary proceeding was held in November 2010. Trustee sought to avoid the following transfers made by Debtors and/or their corporations as fraudulent and to recover the property for the benefit of the estate: 1) a 2001 Chevrolet Corvette to their son Bryan Funderburgh; 2) two 2006 Toyota trucks to employees of the cleaning business; 3) corporate assets including cleaning contracts, accounts receivable, equipment, and supplies to a new corporate entity, JMSI, LLC, created in August 2006 and owned by Bryan Funderburgh; 4) five acres of real property located in Choctaw, Oklahoma to Bryan Funderburgh; 5) five acres of real property located in Oklahoma County, Oklahoma to Bryan Funderburgh; and 6) a Pearson cruiser houseboat located in Key West, Florida to their son James Funderburgh.
Trustee also asked the bankruptcy court, to deny Debtors a discharge pursuant to 11 U.S.C. § 727(a)(2)(A) and (a)(5),14 alleging they transferred or concealed assets with the intent to hinder, delay, or defraud creditors. Among the assets not disclosed were: 1) a Rolex watch; 2) an ownership in Funderburgh Horton LLC which paid dividends of $27,435 after the Chapter 7 petition was filed that were not turned over to Trustee; 3) season tickets to the University of Oklahoma football games; 4) valuable. University of Oklahoma football memorabilia; 5) office furniture; and 6) jewelry.
During the trial, Trustee reached a settlement with Debtors’ son, Bryan Funderburgh, who turned over all of the stock and assets in JMSI, LLC, as well as the part of the Oklahoma County real property that had not been previously sold.15 Additionally, the 2001 Corvette was sold and the proceeds therefrom were used by Debtors to partially fund a settlement that resolved objections by Trustee and creditors to Debtors’ exemption of their houseboat as homestead.16
The bankruptcy court entered its order and judgment in the adversary proceeding on May 28, 2014, denying Debtors a discharge (“Order Denying Discharge”). The bankruptcy court found Debtors were insolvent as of May 25, 2006, and had litigation pending against them when the property transfers in question were made. The bankruptcy court concluded the transfers of the Corvette and the Oklahoma County real property to Bryan Funderburgh were fraudulent and avoided them. The bankruptcy court further concluded that Debtors’ transfers of property and concealment of assets warranted denying them a discharge pursuant to § 727(a)(2)(A) and (a)(5).17
B. The Interim Distribution
On March 17, 2014, while the bankruptcy court’s decision in the adversary pro*368ceeding was under advisement, Trustee filed a motion for authority to make an interim distribution to creditors (“Motion to Distribute”).18 In the Motion to Distribute, the Trustee stated that the majority of the estate’s assets had been collected and reduced to cash, and that she was holding approximately $139,000. She also advised the bankruptcy court that the deadline for filing claims had passed, that all filed claims had been examined, and all objections to claims had been resolved. The Trustee proposed an interim distribution to creditors of $41,766.
Debtors objected to the proposed interim distribution, arguing “[u]ntil the [bankruptcy court] renders a decision in the pending Adversary, case no., 07-1144[sic], ‘[finterim’ distribution may affect the Debtors’ ability to recover funds if those funds have already been distributed to their creditors.”19 Debtors also alleged that Trustee provided no valid reason for making interim distributions.20 Trustee responded that Debtors did not have standing to challenge her Motion to Distribute, and also that making interim distributions, after establishing an appropriate reserve, would be proper in this seven-year-old Chapter 7 bankruptcy case.21 The bankruptcy court heard the matter on May 29, 2014,22 sought input from the United States Trustee’s Office, and on June 4, 2014, entered an order authorizing Trustee to make interim distributions (“Order Authorizing Distribution”).23
Debtors timely filed notices appealing both of the bankruptcy court’s orders on June 9, 2014.24 This Court issued an order to show cause (“Show Cause Order”) why Debtors’ appeal of the Order Authorizing Distribution should not be dismissed for lack of standing. After the parties filed responses to the Show Cause Order, a motions panel referred the issue of standing to this merits panel by order dated July 16, 2014.25
II. APPELLATE JURISDICTION
This Court has jurisdiction to hear timely filed appeals from “final judgments, orders, and decrees” of bankruptcy courts within the Tenth Circuit, unless one of the parties elects to have the district court hear the appeal.26 Neither party elected to have this appeal heard by the United States District Court for the Western Dis*369trict of Oklahoma. The parties have therefore consented to appellate review by this Court.
A decision is considered final “if it ‘ends the litigation on the merits and leaves nothing for the court to do but execute the judgment.’ ”27 Here, the bankruptcy court’s Order Denying Discharge terminated the adversary proceeding, and therefore is final for purposes of review. Although the bankruptcy court’s Order Authorizing Distribution permits Trustee to make “interim” distributions, we conclude it is final for purposes of appeal.28 In the alternative, the Order Authorizing Distribution is appealable under the collateral order doctrine.29 Once money has been transferred from the bankruptcy estate, recovery of those'funds is expensive and complicated at best and impossible at worst.
III. ISSUES ON APPEAL AND STANDARD OF REVIEW
On appeal, Debtors do not challenge the bankruptcy court’s findings that they fraudulently transferred property and concealed assets. Instead, Debtors contest the bankruptcy court’s Order Setting Aside Dismissal. Debtors assert the bankruptcy court erred in exercising jurisdiction over Trustee’s adversary proceeding after Trustee voluntarily dismissed the duplicate adversary proceeding. Debtors also contend the bankruptcy court erroneously considered pre-petition acts taken in their capacities as corporate owners of the cleaning businesses in determining they should be denied a discharge. With respect to the Order Authorizing Distribution, Debtors assert the bankruptcy court erred because “there is no provision in the bankruptcy code that allows for an interim distribution.”30
For purposes of standard of review, decisions by trial courts are traditionally divided into three categories, denominated: 1) questions of law, which are reyiewable de novo; 2) questions of fact, which are renewable for clear error; and, 3) matters of discretion, which are reviewable for abuse of discretion.31 De novo review requires an independent determination of the issues, giving no special weight to the bankruptcy court’s decision.32 A factual finding is “clearly erroneous” when “ ‘it is without factual support in the record, or if the appellate court, after reviewing all the evidence, is left with the definite and firm conviction that a mistake has *370been made.’”33 “Under the abuse of discretion standard: ‘a trial court’s decision will not be disturbed unless the appellate court has a definite and firm conviction that the lower court made a clear error of judgment or exceeded the bounds of permissible choice in the circumstances.’ ”34
We review the bankruptcy court’s Order Setting Aside Dismissal, which is in the nature of postjudgment relief, for an abuse of discretion.35 We note that “[a]n abuse of discretion occurs when the [trial] court bases its ruling on an erroneous conclusion of law or relies on clearly erroneous fact findings.”36 Because Debtors do not challenge any of the bankruptcy court’s factual findings, we review its application of law to the facts in the Order Denying Discharge de novo37 If Debtors have standing to challenge the bankruptcy court’s Order Authorizing Distribution, we review such order for an abuse of discretion.38
IV. ANALYSIS
A. Order Setting Aside Dismissal
On appeal, Debtors argue “it is uncontroverted that the Chapter 7 Trustee filed a ‘voluntary dismissal with prejudice’ in which there are clearly identical parties and identical issues. The voluntary dismissal with prejudice is a death knell to the Chapter 7 Trustee’s action.”39 According to Debtors, the Dismissal of proceeding # 07-1143 operates as res judicata and prevents Trustee from taking further action in proceeding # 07-1144.40 We disagree. The bankruptcy court properly refused to attribute res judicata effect to the Dismissal. Therefore, entry of the Order Setting Aside Dismissal was not an abuse of discretion.
In this case, after Trustee filed her Dismissal, Debtors filed their Motion to Dismiss Trustee’s remaining Complaint on res judicata grounds. Trustee responded with her Motion to Set Aside Dismissal on equitable grounds, and the bankruptcy court entered its Order Setting Aside Dismissal. The bankruptcy court relied on its equitable powers pursuant to § 105 of the Bankruptcy Code to set aside the Dismissal.41 However, Trustee’s Motion to Set Aside Dismissal is in the nature of a Rule 60 motion for relief from a judgment or *371order because such relief also has equitable underpinnings,42 and we will treat it as such. Even though a bankruptcy court has discretion to grant Rule 60 relief as justice requires, “such relief is extraordinary and may only be granted in exceptional circumstances.”43 We conclude the bankruptcy court did not abuse its discretion when it granted relief from judgment and entered the Order Setting Aside Dismissal.
The doctrine of res judicata serves both private and public interests by requiring disputes between parties and their privies to be resolved within the context of a single litigation.44 The United States Supreme Court has observed that res judicata “has the dual purpose of protecting litigants from the burden of relitigating an identical issue with the same party or his privy and of promoting judicial economy by preventing needless litigation.”45 In general, the rules of res judicata apply only to adjudications that are final or on the merits.46 “A dismissal with prejudice, unless the court has made some other provision, is subject to the usual rules of res judicata and is effective not only on the immediate parties to the action but also on their privies.”47 The United States Court of Appeals for the Tenth Circuit (“Tenth Circuit”) has held that “[a] voluntary dismissal with prejudice operates as a final adjudication on the merits ... and thus is a final judgment.”48 Thus, at first blush, Trustee’s Dismissal may potentially have res judicata effect. However, the Tenth Circuit has also held that “like other final judgments, a dismissal with prejudice under Rule 41(a)(l)(A)(i) can be set aside or modified,”49 ordinarily by way of a Rule 60 motion on the basis of mistake.50 Once set aside, it is no longer a final judgment capable of having res judi*372cata effect.51
Debtors moved to dismiss Trustee’s surviving Complaint, arguing it was prevented by rules of prior adjudication. The United States Supreme Court has indicated that “[f]or the sake of repose, res judicata shields the fraud and'the cheat as well as the honest person. It therefore is to be invoked only after careful inquiry.”52 But it has also cautioned that
The doctrine of res judicata serves vital public interests beyond any individual judge’s ad hoc determination of the equities in a particular case. There is simply “no principle of law or equity which sanctions the rejection by a federal court of the salutary principle of res judicata.” .... We have stressed that “[the] doctrine of res judicata is not a mere matter of practice or procedure inherited from a more technical time than ours. It is a rule of fundamental and substantial justice, ‘of public policy and of private peace,’ which should be cordially regarded and enforced by the courtsf.]”53
Still, several courts of appeal have concluded that rare exceptions continue to exist,54 and further that “[t]he doctrine of res judicata rests upon the bedrock principle that, for claim preclusion to apply, a litigant first must have had a full and fair opportunity to litigate his claim.”55 Apropos of the facts here, one New York court counseled that we must “remain mindful that if applied too rigidly, res judicata has the potential to work considerable injustice. In properly seeking to deny a litigant ‘two days in court,’ courts must be careful not to deprive him of one.”56
Here, the duplicate filing of the adversary proceeding is not the type of “second action” res judicata rules seek to prevent. The “two proceedings” were the result of technological difficulties, or as described by the bankruptcy court, “a computer glitch, compounded, perhaps, by operator panic.”57 Setting aside the Dismissal so that Trustee’s Complaint could proceed did not lead to piecemeal litigation because Trustee had not had a full and fair opportunity to litigate her claim. Neither have Debtors been harmed or prejudiced in any way by relying on the Dismissal to their detriment. The words “dismissed with prejudice” were modified by the explanation “since it was filed in duplicate.” It was patently clear from the Dismissal that *373Trustee never intended to terminate or abandon her § 727 claim against Debtors, especially since an identical Complaint remained pending. Applying the principle of res judicata on the facts of this case would unfairly deprive Trustee of even one day in court.
Debtors should not be able to twist the principles of res judicata to contrive a procedural impediment to Trustee’s claim based on a technological error compounded by an ill-fated attempt to correct that error. Use of the words “since it was filed in duplicate” in reference to a newly filed case in which claims will be pursued is evidence that the intent of the notice was to dismiss the duplicate filing without prejudice. Because there was no deliberate act to dismiss the case with prejudice, we conclude Trustee’s office made a mistake or inadvertent statement, which for the sake of equity, may be remedied by post-judgment relief under Rule 60.58 That was the effect of the bankruptcy court’s Order Setting Aside Dismissal.
The bankruptcy court’s decision is founded in equity and common sense. After being given a full and fair opportunity to litigate their claims, Debtors were found to have committed fraud. They fraudulently transferred property. As a result of their misconduct, the bankruptcy court found Debtors ineligible to receive the benefits of a bankruptcy discharge. As discussed infra the record amply supports the decision of the bankruptcy court to deny Debtors a discharge. Were this Court to grant Debtors the relief they seek, they would be relieved of the consequences of their actions. These are not “honest but unfortunate” debtors. They are not entitled to a discharge on the basis of two poorly chosen words in a pleading that clearly evinces the intent of the Trustee to continue to pursue claims for the benefit of this bankruptcy estate and the bankruptcy system as a whole. The bankruptcy court’s Order Setting Aside Dismissal was in the nature of granting Rule 60 relief to give the ambiguous statement “with prejudice since it was filed in duplicate” its obviously intended meaning. The bankruptcy court did not abuse its discretion in setting aside the Dismissal.
B. Order Denying Discharge
■ With respect to the Order Denying Discharge, Debtors argue that
“[i]n deciding whether to grant Debtors a discharge, the bankruptcy court inappropriately considered [ ] fraudulent transfers that were made by the Debtors acting in their corporate officer position. In other words, it would appear that the court pierced the corporate veil even though the chapter 7 Trustee put on no evidence whatsoever that the corporations were the alter egos of the [Debtors].”59
*374Debtors misinterpret the bankruptcy court’s opinion. The Order Denying Discharge is based on Debtors’ fraudulent transfers of personal property and concealment of assets, not their transfers of corporate property. The bankruptcy court explicitly stated it was considering Debtors’ corporate transfers “solely for the purpose of establishing Debtors’ course of conduct for consideration in the § 727 analysis.”60 Drawing inferences from a course of conduct to establish fraudulent intent is permissible because a debtor rarely reveals his subjective intent.61
Even if we assume the bankruptcy court erroneously considered transfers made by Debtors in their capacity as corporate officers, any such error is harmless. Debtors do not challenge the bankruptcy court’s findings that they fraudulently transferred property in their individual capacities, i.e., the Corvette and the Oklahoma County real property conveyed to their son Bryan Funderburgh. Nor do they challenge the bankruptcy, court’s finding that they concealed personal assets. As a result, it is irrelevant whether the bankruptcy court considered Debtors’ transfers of corporate property for purposes of denying them a discharge. Ignoring the corporate transfers in question, there remains more than enough evidence to support the bankruptcy court’s conclusion that Debtors were not entitled to a discharge. Therefore, the Order Denying Discharge is affirmed.
C. Order Authorizing Distribution
Debtors appealed the bankruptcy court’s Order Authorizing Distribution and this Court entered its Show Cause Order seeking an explanation for why the appeal should not be dismissed for lack of standing. We are required to address the issue of standing even if the court below did not pass on it, and even if no party has raised the issue.62 Parties seeking the exercise of jurisdiction in their favor must “clearly [ ] allege facts demonstrating that [they are] proper parties] to invoke judicial resolution of the dispute.”63 Debtors have not, and moreover, cannot meet this burden.
In their response to the Show Cause Order, Debtors rely on the definition of standing from Black’s Law Dictionary that “standing to sue” means “a party has sufficient stake in an otherwise justiciable controversy to obtain judicial resolution of that controversy.”64 But standing for bankruptcy appeal purposes is narrower than Article III standing — it requires an aggrieved person to have a pecuniary interest.65 This narrower test further limits standing to avoid “ ‘endless appeals brought by a myriad of parties who are indirectly affected by every bankruptcy court order.’ ”66 If a court’s order diminishes a person’s property, increases his *375burdens, or impairs his rights, then such person is aggrieved.67 A Chapter 7 debtor rarely meets this requirement with respect to asset distribution because the manner in which a trustee disburses an estate’s assets does, not pecuniarily affect him.68 However, sometimes a debtor may demonstrate a pecuniary interest, and therefore standing, if there is a possibility of an estate surplus after satisfying all debts.69
On appeal, Debtors have not alleged the possibility of an estate surplus, but according to Trustee, there will be no surplus as claims filed exceeded $1.3 million while assets held by Trustee were approximately $140,000.70 There is no chance any of the money held by the Trustee will ever trickle down to Debtors. As a result, Debtors have no standing to contest the interim distribution.
Debtors assert that interim distributions by Trustee will be made from property acquired by the estate from third parties as a result of the bankruptcy court’s avoidance of fraudulent transfers. Accordingly, Debtors argue that interim distributions will deprive them of a meaningful remedy in their appeal of the bankruptcy court’s Order Denying Discharge. In other words, it appears Debtors appeal the Order Authorizing Distribution to prevent their appeal of the Order Denying Discharge from becoming moot.71 Debtors’ argument is meritless.
Although the Trustee combined her fraudulent transfer actions and the complaint objecting to Debtors’ discharge in the same adversary proceeding, the remedies are independent of one another. The majority of the fraudulent transfer actions have been settled, and the Trustee has possession of the settlement funds. At least one of the settlements allowed Debtors to retain their homestead without further litigation. If the Order Denying Discharge is affirmed, those settlements remain intact. The avoided fraudulently transferred property belongs to the estate and will be used to pay creditors. Reversing the denial of Debtors’ discharge would not change that fact.
Even if this Court were to reverse the bankruptcy court’s avoidance of the fraudulent transfers, Debtors have nothing to gain. The property would belong to the third-party transferees. Debtors, therefore have no interest in the property at issue, regardless of the outcome in their appeal of the Order Denying Discharge. As a result, we conclude Debtors have no standing and dismiss their appeal of the Order Authorizing Distribution.
V. CONCLUSION
The decision of the bankruptcy court denying Debtors a discharge is affirmed in all respects. Debtors’ appeal of the bankruptcy court’s decision authorizing Trustee to make interim distribution is dismissed for lack of standing.

. Order Setting Aside Dismissal at 3, in Appellants’ App. at 69.
. There are several categories of Rule 60 relief that are potentially applicable here. First, Rule 60(a) permits the court to grant relief from clerical mistakes, oversights, or omissions. Further, on motion and just terms Rule 60(b)(1) permits relief based on mistake, inadvertence, surprise, or excusable neglect, and Rule 60(b)(6) allows relief for "any other reason justifying relief.” The mistake with legal consequences here is the voluntary dismissal with prejudice. But Trustee never intended to terminate or suspend her adversary against Debtors, only to remedy the earlier “clerical” type mistake resulting in duplicate filings. That mistake was patently clear on the face of the Dismissal because the words "with prejudice” were modified by the phrase "since it was filed in duplicate.” Relief from the Dismissal under Rule 60(a) therefore seems the best fit, but the result here would be the same regardless of which category of Rule 60 we view the bankruptcy court's relief as based on.
