The Transformation Rule Under Section 522 Of The Bankruptcy Code Of 1978, Raymond B. Check
The Transformation Rule Under Section 522 Of The Bankruptcy Code Of 1978, Raymond B. Check
Michigan Law Review
This Note rejects the statutory arguments that have been advanced in favor of the transformation rule, and argues that the rule is inconsistent with both the policies motivating section 522 of the Bankruptcy Code and the overall purposes of the U.C.C. priority system. Part I examines the treatment of purchase money security in the U.C.C. scheme. It also describes the exemption provisions of the 1978 Bankruptcy Code and the legislative concerns that shaped those provisions. Part II summarizes the judicial adoption of the transformation rule and the statutory basis relied upon by courts in applying it. Part III argues that …

Vanderbilt Law Review

Parts IV, V, and VI examine three issues governed by statutory language common to both chapters. …
Bankcard's Revenge: A Critique Of The 1984 Consumer Credit Amendments To The Bankruptcy Code, Paul M. Black, Michael J. Herbert
Bankcard's Revenge: A Critique Of The 1984 Consumer Credit Amendments To The Bankruptcy Code, Paul M. Black, Michael J. Herbert
University of Richmond Law Review
Virtually from the enactment of the Bankruptcy Code in 1978, creditors attempted to roll back what they perceived to be the Code's undue bias toward bankrupts. The Code was branded a debtor's paradise practically beckoning borrowers to shed their debts painlessly and needlessly. It was certainly true that the number of bankruptcy filings rose substantially during the late 1970's and early 1980's, and that some creditors attributed at least some of this to the Code's presumed generosity. Whether the Code actually caused any of the increase in filings is, to put it mildly, controversial. Other factors, most significantly the general …

Toward A Reform Of The Six-Year Bar To Discharge In Bankruptcy, David C. Williams
Toward A Reform Of The Six-Year Bar To Discharge In Bankruptcy, David C. Williams
Articles by Maurer Faculty
Since early in this century, the six-year bar to discharge has been a familiar feature of bankruptcy law: a debtor who has once been adjudicated a bankrupt and granted a discharge has traditionally been unable to obtain another discharge for six years afterwards. The continued vitality of the measure, originally applicable to all forms of bankruptcy available, is now uncertain and controversial under the new chapter proceedings. The confusion surrounding the six-year bar suggests the need for a fresh consideration of the purposes of the rule. This Note examines the bar's animating rationale and the status of the bar under …
The Trustee Versus The Trade Creditor: A Critique Of Section 547(C)(1), (2) & (4) Of The Bankruptcy Code, Michael J. Herbert
The Trustee Versus The Trade Creditor: A Critique Of Section 547(C)(1), (2) & (4) Of The Bankruptcy Code, Michael J. Herbert
University of Richmond Law Review
The Bankruptcy Code, like its predecessor the Bankruptcy Act, permits the trustee to avoid certain preferential transfers made or suffered by the bankrupt just prior to bankruptcy. Generally, any transfer relating to an antecedent debt made to or for a creditor by an insolvent within ninety days before the filing of the bankruptcy petition is avoidable by the trustee. The trustee may sue the creditor to recover the preference. In addition, the preferred creditor will not be entitled to any dividend from the estate until the preference is repaid.
Avoiding Liens Under The New Bankruptcy Code: Construction And Application Of Section 522(F), Judy Toyer
Avoiding Liens Under The New Bankruptcy Code: Construction And Application Of Section 522(F), Judy Toyer
University of Michigan Journal of Law Reform
This Note argues that strict construction of section 522(f)(2) is most consistent with congressional intent. Part I discusses the congressional rationale behind lien avoidance. Part II examines present efforts to apply section 522(f)(2), and concludes that judicial interpretation to date has proved largely inadequate. Finally, Part III proposes new judicial guidelines and statutory amendments designed to standardize application of the lien avoidance provision in a manner consistent with the congressional intent behind the Reform Act.
Inflation And The Concept Of Reorganization Value, Elizabeth J. Schwartz
Inflation And The Concept Of Reorganization Value, Elizabeth J. Schwartz
Vanderbilt Law Review
This Recent Development examines the validity of this formula, with and without allowances for future inflation, as a tool for valuing the stock to be distributed to creditors in corporate re-organization proceedings. This discussion considers the valuation method both under Chapter 11 of the new Bankruptcy Code and under Chapter X of the now superseded Bankruptcy Act, which is still effective in many pending cases. The Recent Development describes the purpose and effects of equity share valuations in bankruptcy reorganization proceedings, compares the methods that have been used by the courts with methods used by investors to ascertain the investment …
