No CLE

Featuring the Judges of the 20th Annual Rocky Mountain Bankruptcy Conference.

This panel will consider current issues of interest to judges and insolvency professionals.

BAPCPA contained a number of provisions meant to assist the debtor in the art of valuation. The valuation process is more important than ever given recent Supreme Court rulings on exemption limits. This panel will revisit the statutory provisions of the Code and discuss recent cases dealing with the appropriate methodology to be employed by the debtor when completing the bankruptcy schedules — and how that valuation impacts the ultimate administration of the case by the trustee.

In 2009, Fairfield Sentry Ltd.’s liquidators commenced litigation in the BVI and the U.S. to recover more than $6 billion from redeeming investors. This panel discussion will discuss the basis for clawback claims generally, the recent decision by the Privy Council, and the impact of the decision for trustees, liquidators and redeeming investors going forward.
