On May 29, 2012, the U.S. Supreme Court decided RadLAX Gateway Hotel LLC v. Amalgamated Bank, No. 11-166, holding that a Chapter 11 debtor may not obtain confirmation of a "cramdown" plan under 11 U.S.C. § 1129(b)(2)(a) that provides for the sale of collateral free and clear of a secured creditor's lien but that does not permit the creditor to credit-bid at the asset sale (that is, offset the purchase price by the amount of the debt owed).
