Bespoke, Tailored, And Off-The-Rack Bankruptcy: A Response To Professor Coordes's 'Bespoke Bankruptcy', Christopher D. Hampson

UF Law Faculty Publications

Toward the end of every semester that I teach bankruptcy, I let my students vote on which “non-traditional” insolvency regimes they would like to study, including municipal bankruptcy, sovereign bankruptcy, and financial institutions. What I am really trying to do is convey to the students that the default procedures and substantive rules in Chapters 7 and 11 of the U.S. Bankruptcy Code do not apply to all types of enterprises.
