"Delaware Is Not A State": Are We Witnessing Jurisdictional Competition In Bankruptcy?, Marcus Cole

Vanderbilt Law Review

Over the last twelve years, the United States District Court for the District of Delaware has experienced exponential growth in the number of bankruptcy filings for large corporate debtors. This relatively recent rise in Delaware bankruptcy venue cannot, on its face, be explained by Delaware's eighty-five-year preeminence in the race for corporate charters, since the advantages most often postulated for Delaware's dominance in corporate law do not carry over to corporate bankruptcy.

Note On The Neutral Assignment Of Federal Appellate Judges, Carl Tobias

San Diego Law Review

Neutral Assignment of Judges at the Court of Appeals (Neutral Assignment) substantially increases comprehension of the federal intermediate appellate courts.
