Producing Better Mileage: Advancing The Design And Usefulness Of Hybrid Vehicles For Social Business Ventures, John E. Tyler, Evan Absher, Kathleen Garman, Anthony J. Luppino
Faculty Works
Since 2008 approximately half of the states in the U.S. have enacted statutes permitting “hybrid” business forms that blend aspects of traditional for-profit ventures with characteristics normally associated with traditional non-profit entities. This article analyzes theoretical, academic, practical, legal, and regulatory questions regarding the extent to which the existing hybrids are suited to achieving social purposes objectives, including in comparison to modified traditional forms of business organization. Finding the current fleet of hybrids an innovative, useful start, but with need to evolve, this article proposes statutory language (set forth in a detailed appendix, and summarized in the article text), and …

UIC Law Open Access Faculty Scholarship
Uniform Commercial Code (“UCC”) Section 1-201(35) provides in its detailed definition of security interests that “security interest” means “an interest in personal property or fixtures which secures payment or performance of an obligation.” Other parts of the UCC demonstrate that two relatively distinct kinds of security interests exist. First, the UCC notes that parties to transactions can create security interests by executing “security agreements.” For convenience sake, the security interests created by security agreements can be called “conventional” or “agreed upon” security interests. Second, various sections of the UCC describe security interests that come into existence by operation of law …

The Chapter 13 Debtor's Absolute Right To Dismiss, Daniel J. Sheffner
Cleveland State Law Review
This Article discusses the current state of the Chapter 13 dismissal circuit split, providing an overview of 1307(b) and other relevant sections of the Bankruptcy Code, illustrative pre Marrama case law on either side of the divide, and the Marrama decision itself. This Part examines Marrama’s role in shifting the debate from one based primarily on 1307’s text to that of the bankruptcy courts’ general powers to sanction bad faith conduct, as well as lower courts’ responses to that decision. Part III examines Law, paying special attention to the Court’s discussion of the limitations placed on bankruptcy courts’ statutory and …

Changes In Chapter 11 Success Levels Since 1980, Lynn M. Lopucki
UF Law Faculty Publications
This Article revisits the nine measures of success that Bill Whitford and I reported on in Patterns in the Bankruptcy Reorganization of Large, Publicly Held Companies, with twenty-six additional years of experience and data on 964 additional cases. My principal objective has been to determine whether Chapter 11 has become more or less successful by those measures. I conclude that Chapter 11 has become less successful by three of the seven LoPucki-Whitford criteria for which data are available. The courts confirm plans in a significantly smaller proportion of cases, a significantly smaller proportion of companies survive, and a significantly smaller …

Bankruptcy Survival, Lynn M. Lopucki, Joseph W. Doherty
UF Law Faculty Publications
Of the large, public companies that seek to remain in business through bankruptcy reorganization, only 70% succeed. The assets of the other 30% are absorbed into other businesses. Success is important both because it is efficient and it preserves jobs, communities, supplier and customer relationships, and tax revenues. This Article reports the findings of the first comprehensive study of the division into successful and failed reorganizations. Eleven conditions best predict companies’ survival prospects. First, a company that even hints in the press release announcing its bankruptcy that it intends to sell its business is highly likely to fail. Second, reorganizations …
