House bill H.R. 2533 was introduced three years ago with much fanfare by the then Chairman of the  House Judiciary Committee. H.R. 2533 proposes amending “title 28 of the United States Code with  respect to proper venue for cases filed by corporations under chapter 11 of title 11 of such Code.” It is  intended to reduce the number of jurisdictions available for filing a bankruptcy case by effectively  eliminating a debtor’s “place of incorporation” as a venue option.
