    Further Uncertainty for UK Commercial Landlords as Extension to Prohibition on Forfeiture is Announced
    2020-12-10

    The UK Government has announced that the temporary prohibition on forfeiture will be extended when the current prohibition comes to an end at the end of the year. The restriction, that prevents commercial landlords from forfeiting a lease for non-payment, will now be in place until 31 March 2021.

    Lessees Left in Limbo
    2017-08-03

    Do a lessee’s possessory interests in real property survive a “free and clear” sale of the property under section 363 of the Bankruptcy Code? In a recent decision, the Ninth Circuit Court of Appeals said “no,” holding that section 365(h) did not protect the interest of the lessee in the context of a section 363 sale when there had been no prior formal rejection of the lease under section 365.

    An Important Ruling for Secured Lenders - Ninth Circuit Holds that the Proper Cramdown Valuation is Replacement Value
    2017-06-19

    In an important decision for secured creditors, the Ninth Circuit recently held that the proper “cramdown” valuation of a secured creditor’s collateral is its replacement value, regardless of whether the foreclosure value would generate a higher valuation of the collateral. The appellate court’s decision has the potential to significantly impact lenders that include certain types of restrictions on the use of the collateral (such as low income housing requirements) in their financing documents.
