Hosted by ABI's Consumer Bankruptcy Committee With the climate of COVID-19 in the rearview mirror, the consumer bankruptcy process now largely resembles the normalcy that had been elusive during the pandemic. However, remnants of COVID legislation have influenced escrow accounts of consumer debtors and consequently impacted mortgage creditor proofs of claim. Starting with Regulation X and how to perform an escrow analysis, this presentation will discuss escrow and proofs of claim, post-petition escrow accounting (payment change notices under Bankruptcy Rule 3002.1(b)), and the effects of the CARES Act on the treatment of escrow in chapter 13 proceedings.

In this dynamic session, leading bankruptcy professionals will deliver concise, powerful TED Talk-style presentations on plan gatekeeper provisions, disinterestedness of estate professionals, fighting plan exclusivity and mentoring the next generation.

This panel will discuss and analyze current notable business and consumer bankruptcy cases.
