Join this session, featuring Lowenstein's Bruce S. Nathan, Andrew Behlmann, and Michael Papandrea, to learn several hot-button issues that credit professionals have been dealing with in Chapter 11 cases. The speakers will discuss recent significant rulings that impact trade creditors on section 503(b)(9) priority claims for goods received by a debtor within 20 days of bankruptcy and on preference claims and defenses. That includes a recent ruling by the U.S. Eleventh Circuit Court of Appeals on the applicability of the new value preference defense to invoices paid post-petition to critical vendors and creditors with section 503(b)(9) priority claims, recent ordinary course of business preference defense decisions, a recent decision denying section 503(b)(9) priority status to a creditor asserting a claim for the supply of electricity, and a recent case law on the enforceability of non-consensual releases of claims against non-debtor third parties.
