    6th Cir. BAP Holds In Rem Foreclosure Not Disguised In Personam Collection Effort
    2016-08-15

    The Bankruptcy Appellate Panel of the Sixth Circuit recently held that a condominium unit owners association did not violate a debtor’s Chapter 7 discharge order by scheduling a sheriff’s sale to complete a prepetition foreclosure.

    Rejecting the bankruptcy court’s conclusion that the in rem foreclosure sale was scheduled to induce payment of discharged pre-petition condominium fees, the Sixth Circuit BAP noted that “all foreclosure litigation potentially can induce payments of discharged debt to avoid a foreclosure sale.”

    Florida Bankruptcy Court Denies Mortgagee’s Motion to Reopen Chapter 7 Case
    2016-02-09

    The U.S. Bankruptcy Court for the Southern District of Florida recently denied a mortgagee’s motion to reopen a Chapter 7 case to compel the surrender of real property, due to a five-year delay in filing the motion.

    In so ruling, the court agreed with an earlier ruling from the U.S. Bankruptcy Court for the Middle District of Florida (In re Plummer, 513 B.R. 135 (Bankr. M.D. Fla. 2014)), distinguishing “surrender” from “foreclosure,” and holding that a creditor cannot use the Bankruptcy Code to circumvent the obligations imposed by state law.

    Florida bankruptcy court holds debtor who ‘surrenders’ property in BK cannot impede foreclosure
    2015-10-19

    The U.S. Bankruptcy Court for the Middle District of Florida recently held that, at a minimum, “surrender” under Bankruptcy Code §§ 521 and 1325 means a debtor cannot take an overt act that impedes a secured creditor from foreclosing its interest in secured property.

    In so holding, the Court found that actively contesting a post-bankruptcy foreclosure case is inconsistent with a “surrender” of the property.

    Una nueva sentencia sobre la calificación concursal —o no— de una acción a efectos de la determinación de la competencia judicial internacional
    2019-02-19

    No es concursal una acción que tiene por objeto una pretensión de indemnización de daños y perjuicios por responsabilidad delictual o cuasidelictual, que ejercita el síndico en el marco de un procedimiento de insolvencia y que, de prosperar, daría lugar a la reintegración de lo obtenido en la masa activa. La competencia para conocer de ella se determina por las disposiciones del Reglamento Bruselas I (RBI, aplicado al caso por razones temporales, si bien lo decidido por el Tribunal de Justicia de la Unión Europea [TJUE] se extiende al actualmente aplicable RBIbis).

    Problemas de refinanciación concursal y de unidad productiva (a propósito de las conclusiones en el 2016 de los Juzgados de lo Mercantil en Santander)
    2017-01-24

    PRIMERA. El dinero de la refinanciación a efectos de los artículos 71 bis, 82.2.11.º y la disposición adicional 4.ª de la Ley Concursal (LCon) es suficiente que se haya suscrito «en el contexto de la refinanciación» y se destine a que el deudor obtenga liquidez, pudiendo ser una financiación simultánea, anterior o posterior al acuerdo, «siempre y cuando esté íntimamente conectado conéste y con la viabilidad de la empresa a corto o medio plazo»(conclusión aprobada por mayoría).

    In accordance with EU legislation, Member States have the power to limit the obligation of public guarantee institutions to pay employees’ claims in the event of their employer’s insolvency. The Court of Justice found to be compliant a national provision (Bulgarian law) that confines the protection given by said guarantee institutions to those employment relationships that have not ended within the three months prior to the opening of insolvency proceedings.
