In a May 28, 2010 decision, Judge Alan Gold of the United States District Court for the Southern District of Florida granted a motion to dismiss claims filed against lenders on a revolving loan agreement to the Fontainebleau resort and casino project in Las Vegas. The claims were brought by two term loan lenders for the project, Avenue CLO Fund, which had provided term loan funding, and Aurelius Capital, which had acquired the interests of other term lenders following the project’s bankruptcy.

On February 11, 2011, the Hon. Alan Gold of the United States District Court for the Southern District of Florida reversed the October 30, 2009 fraudulent conveyance finding issued by the Bankruptcy Court in the TOUSA case as it pertained to lenders involved in TOUSA’s Transeastern joint venture.

In a second decision of the United States District Court for the Southern District of Florida involving secured lenders to bankrupt homebuilder TOUSA, Inc., on March 4, 2011, Judge Adalberto Jordan affirmed the dismissal of fraudulent conveyance claims brought against the lenders on a revolving credit facility. In dismissing those claims, the Bankruptcy Court had emphasized that, because the revolving credit agreement was entered into, and the liens securing it were pledged, well before the company's alleged insolvency, they were immune from fraudulent conveyance attack.
