Structured Dismissals in Chapter 11: Valid Alternative or Impermissible Resolution of Bankruptcy Case?

Event Description

 

Deadline to Register: November 12, 2015

"Structured" dismissals—dismissals of Chapter 11 bankruptcy cases conditioned upon terms agreed to in advance by stakeholders and approved by the court—have grown in use and popularity to resolve a bankruptcy case. They are, however, not without controversy. The presenters will address whether a "structured" dismissal of a Chapter 11 bankruptcy case can be a viable alternative to confirmation of a plan or conversion of the case to a liquidation under Chapter 7.
