ファクタリングという言葉を聞かれたことがあると思います。ただ，ファクタリングと一口に言っても，複数の形式があり，主 として売掛債権の資金化のために行うもの（債権の売買）と， 貸倒れリスクを軽減するためファクタリング会社が債務保証を する保証形式のものとがあり，前者は担保付きの資金融資
（すなわち，売掛債権を譲渡担保とした金銭消費貸借契約） と接近する側面があります。
そこで，法的には，債権の売買となるのか，担保付きの資金 融資なのかは重要な問題となります。また，ファクタリングは， 法的倒産手続との関係でも様々な論点が出てきます。本稿では，ある裁判例を題材に，ファクタリングと倒産手続につい て検討してみたいと思います。

Chapter 11 debtors commonly use plans of reorganization to decelerate defaulted loans and reinstate the obligations according to their original terms as a means of locking in favorable terms in an unfavorable market. In order to do so, the Bankruptcy Code requires that the trustee or chapter 11 debtor-in-possession ("DIP") "cure" any defaults under the loan agreement, other than defaults related to a debtor's financial condition ("ipso facto provisions") or penalties payable due to the debtor's breach of certain non-monetary obligations.
Valuation is a critical and indispensable part of the bankruptcy process. How collateral and other estate assets (and even creditor claims) are valued determines a wide range of issues, from a secured creditor's right to adequate protection, postpetition interest, or relief from the automatic stay to a proposed chapter 11 plan's satisfaction of the "best interests" test or whether a "cramdown" plan can be confirmed despite the objections of dissenting creditors.
Are bankruptcy doors now opening for cannabis companies? A decision last week from a California bankruptcy court indicates perhaps so, at least for cannabis companies that are no longer operating.
Factual Background
Ignorance of the law is no excuse. We all learned that in law school. Still, you don’t know what you don’t know. And when it comes to bankruptcy law, too many of us just don’t know some basics, like how to protect your fee. Non-bankruptcy lawyers routinely represent debtors or their litigation opponents in non-bankruptcy disputes, such as personal injury claims. To comply with your duty to competently represent clients who are in bankruptcy or litigating against a debtor, and to protect your fee, know these fundamentals.

企業倒産処理手続（CIRP）が進行している間、債権者と CIRP 対象企業（企業債務者）との間で、債務解消のための話し合いが行われることがよくあり ます。このような場合において、債権者は、債務者に対して行ったCIRPの開始申請（CIRP申請）を撤回することができます。本記事では、債務者が清算手続きに入った後におけるCIRP申請の取り下げについて、VS Varun v. South India Bank（VS Varun Case）における会社法審判所（NCLT）の判決を参照に、解説します。
