This book was released on 2016-12-26 with total page 266 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This second edition includes 140 briefs I have written of Supreme Court cases that deal with bankruptcy from 1817 through Commonwealth of Puerto Rico v. Franklin California Tax-Free Trust in June 2016. The first edition had 121 briefs. The book includes a brief of all 80 bankruptcy cases decided by the Supreme Court since 1979. The briefs set forth the critical facts, often in a single paragraph, the specific issues the Court believes it is resolving, the arguments made by the parties, the rulings and why the court ruled the way it did. Supreme Court opinions typically resolve a single issue and are typically based on the statutory text, the law that Congress created. The briefs are, by definition - brief. They are largely the words of the author of the Supreme Court opinion. The underlying facts of the case and the rulings and rationales of the lower courts are those set forth in the Supreme Court opinion.

Download or read book Courting Failure written by Lynn LoPucki and published by University of Michigan Press. This book was released on 2010-06-02 with total page 335 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: LoPucki's provocative critique of Chapter 11 is required reading for everyone who cares about bankruptcy reform. This empirical account of large Chapter 11 cases will trigger intense debate both inside the academy and on the floor of Congress. Confronting LoPucki's controversial thesis-that competition between bankruptcy judges is corrupting them-is the most pressing challenge now facing any defender of the status quo." -Douglas Baird, University of Chicago Law School "This book is smart, shocking and funny. This story has everything-professional greed, wrecked companies, and embarrassed judges. Insiders are already buzzing." -Elizabeth Warren, Leo Gottlieb Professor of Law, Harvard Law School "LoPucki provides a scathing attack on reorganization practice. Courting Failure recounts how lawyers, managers and judges have transformed Chapter 11. It uses empirical data to explore how the interests of the various participants have combined to create a system markedly different from the one envisioned by Congress. LoPucki not only questions the wisdom of these changes but also the free market ideology that supports much of the general regulation of the corporate sector." -Robert Rasmussen, University of Chicago Law School A sobering chronicle of our broken bankruptcy-court system, Courting Failure exposes yet another American institution corrupted by greed, avarice, and the thirst for power. Lynn LoPucki's eye-opening account of the widespread and systematic decay of America's bankruptcy courts is a blockbuster story that has yet to be reported in the media. LoPucki reveals the profound corruption in the U.S. bankruptcy system and how this breakdown has directly led to the major corporate failures of the last decade, including Enron, MCI, WorldCom, and Global Crossing. LoPucki, one of the nation's leading experts on bankruptcy law, offers a clear and compelling picture of the destructive power of "forum shopping," in which corporations choose courts that offer the most favorable outcome for bankruptcy litigation. The courts, lured by big money and prestige, streamline their requirements and lower their standards to compete for these lucrative cases. The result has been a series of increasingly shoddy reorganizations of major American corporations, proposed by greedy corporate executives and authorized by case-hungry judges.

Download or read book Consumer Bankruptcy written by David Gray Carlson and published by Vandeplas Pub.. This book was released on 2013-12 with total page 662 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The third edition of Consumer Bankruptcy is a case book designed for a two- or three-unit law school course focusing solely on the unique issues that arise under the United States Bankruptcy Code when an individual with primarily consumer debts files for bankruptcy. The book fully explores the complexities introduced in 2005 with the enactment of the Bankruptcy Abuse Prevention and Consumer Protection Act, legislation that clearly sets out consumer bankruptcies as a very technical sub-specialty in the field of bankruptcy. Covered in this book are the barriers to entry by a consumer into chapter 7 liquidation, issues relating to discharge of debt, chapter 13 plans and chapter 13 cases converted to chapter 7. About the author: David Gray Carlson is Professor of Law at the Benjamin N. Cardozo School of Law. He is the author of a treatise on secured credit in bankruptcy and of over sixty law review articles on various aspects of bankruptcy and debtor-creditor law. Five of these articles concern the effect of the 2005 Bankruptcy Abuse Prevention and Consumer Protection Act, which revolutionized the law of consumer bankruptcies. He has taught a basic bankruptcy course for 25 years, before concluding that consumer bankruptcies had become such a sub-specialty that it is better taught in a course separate from the basic course. Besides teaching at Cardozo Law School, Carlson has taught at George Washington University Law School, University of Miami Law School, University of Michigan Law School and Washington & Lee School of Law.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In probing the Chapter 11 bankruptcies of Johns-Manville, Frank Lorenzo's Continental Airlines and Te×aco, the author shows not only that bankruptcy is pursued by managers more and more as a strategy, but that it is becoming accepted by the business community as a viable option and not just a last-ditch solution.
