Contesting Confirmation

A chapter 11 plan of reorganization or liquidation is the document that controls the methodology and order by which the debtor proposes to pay its creditors. The plan is subject to comment and criticism by any party affected by it – namely, each and every creditor of the debtor, potential targets of causes of action that the debtor may have, and parties that may have potential causes of action against the debtor.  Confirmation of a plan is commonly a key goal in a chapter 11 case.  Why?  And trying to confirm one is often rife with dispute and litigation. Why?  This webinar explores this process and provides guidance as to how to both defend and attack the confirmation of a debtor’s chapter 11 plan.
