Privatization And Economic Rights In Central Europe, Robert Jystad Jan 1992

Privatization And Economic Rights In Central Europe, Robert Jystad

Cardozo Journal of International and Comparative Law

The article advocates for the reevaluation and adaptation of economic rights in the context of Eastern Europe's transition from communism to market economies, particularly focusing on the challenges posed by privatization.

The article concludes that the success of these transitions depends on addressing unfair asset distribution and …


Secured Creditors And Expenses Of Bankruptcy Administration, David G. Carlson Jan 1992

Secured Creditors And Expenses Of Bankruptcy Administration, David G. Carlson

Articles

In any complex bankruptcy proceeding one of the most poignant questions facing the parties and the court is who must pay the trustee's expenses. In addition to routine administrative costs, such expenses may include costs of disposing of estate assets, or, in reorganization proceedings, expenses necessary to preserve the assets and going-concern value of the debtor's business. In this Article, Professor David Gray Carlson undertakes a comprehensive examination of the law of bankruptcy expense allocation through the lens of Bankruptcy Code section 506(c), the trustee's principle tool for charging expenses to secured creditors. After a careful examination of priority and …


Bankruptcy Theory And The Creditors' Bargain, David G. Carlson Jan 1992

Bankruptcy Theory And The Creditors' Bargain, David G. Carlson

Articles

The article critiques the traditional "simple creditors' bargain" theory in bankruptcy law, arguing that it fails to align with libertarian principles due to its inability to justify bankruptcy discharges and its exclusion of debtors and non-creditors. It then explores an "expanded creditors' bargain," which attempts to address distributive aspects but ultimately falls short by excluding non-consensual creditors and failing to explain why contractual risk allocation is insufficient. The analysis highlights the theory's shortcomings in handling various creditor types and risks, questioning its validity in explaining bankruptcy law.

The Collapsed Leveraged Buyout And The Trustee In Bankruptcy, James F. Queenan Jr. Oct 1989

The Collapsed Leveraged Buyout And The Trustee In Bankruptcy, James F. Queenan Jr.

Cardozo Law Review

Leveraged buyouts bring about concentration of a corporation's ownership in the hands of a few stockholders. This permits the stockholders to control the corporation with the incentive to operate it efficiently in order to realize the entire profit for themselves. Such a joinder of control and ownership, however, is produced at great cost to the corporation, which provides most of the funds used to purchase the stock from the selling shareholders. There is, therefore, the danger of prejudice to a non-stockholder constituency-the corporation's creditors, employees, customers, and the community in which it is located. It is the thesis of this …
