Bankruptcy For The Poor?, Stephanie Ben-Ishai, Saul Schwartz
Bankruptcy For The Poor?, Stephanie Ben-Ishai, Saul Schwartz
Osgoode Hall Law Journal
The conventional wisdom is that the poor are not heavy users of the insolvency system, because creditors are unwilling to take risks on the poor and because many of the poor are judgment-proof.
