Plan Confirmation

This panel will discuss recent confirmation issues, including whether a plan that offers new value from an insider can be confirmed without an auction process (In re Castleton Plaza, LP); the effect of third-party guarantees (In re Loop 76); whether claims-purchasers must have “good cause” to change a plan vote (In re J.C. Householders Land Trust #1); and treatment of non-recourse claims under § 1111(b) (In re B.R. Brookfield Commons No. 1 LLC).

This panel will explore key issues via a live demonstration of a confirmation hearing. Learn what evidence is required to confirm a plan, and how to present and cross-examine experts in connection with feasibility. How would you rule?

The chapter 11 plan has been confirmed, and consummation is on the horizon. But unforeseen circumstances have put the plan in peril or, worse yet, have caused the plan to fail. This panel will discuss the issues that arise when a plan fails post-confirmation. What alternatives exist? What provisions should be included in a plan to anticipate and guard against failure? Where can the parties go for court assistance?
