Submitted by mlukban@gmail.com on Thu, 2013-05-30 16:23

Class action lawsuits in both chapter 11 and 13 cases are becoming more prevalent. Are you wondering whether your clients’ WARN Act claims would be better pursued against a debtor company in a class action adversary proceeding or in a class proof of claim, or both? If your client has been sued in a debtor’s consumer class action adversary proceeding, do you know what the best defenses are against class certification?

NO CLE - Principles of Property of the Estate: Demystifying Equitable Interests

Submitted by mlukban@gmail.com on Wed, 2013-05-29 10:52

In this 90-minute seminar, Professors Andrew Kull of Boston University School of Law and Scott Pryor of Regent University School of Law provide an in-depth analysis of a legal principle which has become, in their words, "a long-lost area of the law"—§ 541 of the Bankruptcy Code. Seeking to demystify what is meant by "property of the estate" and, in particular, the distinction between legal or equitable interests of the debtor in property, Kull and Pryor describe the legal entanglements that ensue when legal title belongs to one person but the equitable title belongs to someone else.
