Listing a lawsuit explicitly in a disclosure statement may not mean there’s a ‘close nexus’ to provide subject matter jurisdiction for an action brought in bankruptcy court after confirmation.

Delaware’s Bankruptcy Judge Goldblatt explains why the Supreme Court’s Truck Insurance opinion says nothing about Article III constitutional standing.

When creditors have been paid in full, a trustee may pursue fraudulent transfers for the benefit of defrauded equity holders, Bankruptcy Judge Craig Goldblatt says.

The circuit courts are diverging on the utility of equitable mootness to avoid reversing confirmation of chapter 11 plans.

Holding $1.4 billion in escrow did not preclude invocation of equitable mootness, Third Circuit majority says.

The Third Circuit majority upheld nondebtor, nonconsensual releases because they were part of a sale, making the appeal statutorily moot under Section 363(m).

The Third Circuit splits from Seventh and Tenth Circuit opinions dating from 1987 and 1990.

The circuits are split on whether equity can extend the 60-day deadline for filing dischargeability complaints.

The debtors’ inequitable conduct didn’t relieve counsel of the duty to disclose fees charged for post-petition litigation.

Section 107 more broadly protects trade secrets and confidential information than does common law.
