Bankruptcy Judge Paul Baisier of Atlanta disagreed with Bankruptcy Judge Craig Goldblatt of Delaware about requiring creditors to vote before they are saddled with nondebtor releases in chapter 11 plans.

A magistrate judge decided that a bankruptcy court’s order from another district halting suits against nondebtors was unenforceable because it was not an ‘injunction’ made under Section 105(a).

If a creditor’s judicial lien is avoided, how can the creditor collect the underlying debt if it’s excepted from discharge?

In the Third Circuit, it’s possible to cure a payment default under a chapter 13 play beyond five years, district judge says in affirming the bankruptcy court.

Most justices seemed inclined to believe that the waiver of sovereign immunity in Section 106(a) does not abrogate the “actual creditor” requirement in Section 544(b)(1).

A decision from a state or federal court before bankruptcy finding a securities law violation isn’t required for nondischargeability under Section 523(a)(19).

The same district judge who correctly predicted that Purdue’s nonconsensual releases were prohibited has nonetheless upheld a preliminary injunction barring suits against nondebtors.

The definition of ‘small business’ uses the word ‘activities,’ not ‘operations,’ making nonoperating small business eligible for Subchapter V.

The Ninth Circuit split with the Sixth Circuit in the interpretation of the ‘hanging paragraph’ in Section 541(b)(7). Courts are divided four ways on whether or how much a ‘13’ debtor may contribute to voluntary retirement plans after filing.

With an exception, cases after Purdue are pointing toward approval of nondebtor releases where creditors are only allowed to opt out.
