On the other hand, we denounce with righteous indignation and dislike men who are so beguiled and demoralized by the charms of pleasure of the moment, so blinded by desire, that they cannot foresee the pain and trouble that are bound to ensue; and equal blame belongs to those who fail in their duty through weakness of will, which is the same as saying through shrinking from toil and pain. These cases are perfectly simple and easy to distinguish. In a free hour, when our power of choice is untrammelled and when nothing prevents our being able to do what we like best, every pleasure is to be welcomed and every pain avoided. But in certain circumstances and owing to the claims of duty or the obligations of business it will frequently occur that pleasures have to be repudiated and annoyances accepted. The wise man therefore always holds in these matters to this principle of selection: he rejects pleasures to secure other greater pleasures, or else he endures pains to avoid worse pains.On the other hand, we denounce with righteous indignation and dislike men who are so beguiled and demoralized by the charms of pleasure of the moment, so blinded by desire, that they cannot foresee the pain and trouble that are bound to ensue; and equal blame belongs to those who fail in their duty through weakness of will, which is the same as saying through shrinking from toil and pain.

ABI Live: Change of Control via 363 Sale vs. Plan of Reorganization
The first two parts of this three-part webinar series focused on key topics associated with sales that take place in chapter 11 bankruptcies, and addressed executory contract rejection, the role of customers in chapter 11 bankruptcy proceedings, and change of control via a § 363 sale vs. a plan of reorganization.
In this third and last session, the panelists will explore the complexities of sales in chapter 11 bankruptcy with a focus on two common methods of selling a business: plans of reorganization and § 363 sales. The panelists will explore the pros and cons of each method from the perspectives of customers, creditors and debtors, and will provide insights into when each should be utilized.
Our experts will compare plans of reorganization to § 363 sales, outlining key differences, timelines, the parties involved and the level of court involvement, and will provide guidance on when to choose a plan versus a § 363 sale and the potential impact of each. Attendees will better understand the options available for selling in a chapter 11 bankruptcy, and the factors to consider when choosing between a plan of reorganization and a § 363 sale.
