- Assignments for the Benefit of Creditors: Creditor Considerations
One of the vehicles to liquidate a failed or no longer viable business is an assignment for the benefit of creditors ("ABC" or "Assignment"). This method of liquidating or transferring assets has the advantage of avoiding the unpredictability and expense of a Chapter 7 or a liquidating Chapter 11 of the Bankruptcy Code. An assignment is a transfer of the debtor's legal and equitable title to property to a trustee, with authority to liquidate the debtor's affairs and distribute proceeds equitably to creditors. An assignment is subject to state law of the state in which it is made. The assignee will examine Uniform Commercial Code filings and other documents to determine who has valid and perfected liens on the assets. The biggest advantages of an assignment as the cost savings to the est...

- A Preference for States? The Woes of Preempting State Preference Statutes
Financially distressed businesses, especially in California, are increasingly using assignments for the benefit of creditors (ABCs) to liquidate their assets as an alternative to filing a chapter 7 bankruptcy. ABCs are more efficient, less costly, and minimize negative publicity for management. Recently, several courts considered whether the California preference statute, which gives a state assignee, but not creditors generally, the power to recover preferences, is preempted by the Bankruptcy Code. The decision to file for bankruptcy or to initiate ABC proceedings is predominantly a creditor concern. The decisions of the California Court of Appeals and the Ninth Circuit have substantial impact on creditors because a preemptiomst resolution to the debate at hand would result in a tradeo...

Commercial Law League of America (CLLA) past president Robert Bernstein reports that many Bankruptcy Trustees are very interested in finding ways to work with CLLA members who have expertise in locating assets. Locating and recovering the assets of a bankrupt debtor increases the payment to creditors, the commissions to the Trustees, and represents a business opportunity for CLLA members. Even as they grapple to understand what the bankruptcy reform legislation means for their practices and for their clients, leaders of the Bankruptcy Section continue to make the League proud with their activities in both the legislative and judicial arenas. Assignments for the benefit of creditors are viable alternatives to bankruptcy in a number of states.

Today, people are experiencing a prolonged period of credit stability. Often sarcastically referred to as "extend and pretend," this state is the most sluggish period for the insolvency industry, because there is minimal motivation for lenders to proactively address distressed loans. According to the Administrative Office of the United States Courts, business Chapter 11 filings have been down 17% during the first six months of 2010, and large company Chapter 11 filings have been virtually nonexistent. Of the Chapter 11 cases that were filed in 2010, the majority were pre-arranged, pre-packaged, a quick sale or a straight liquidation meaning that insolvency work for that case was short-lived. The author thinks it will be at least the second quarter of 2011 before people see a real reboun...
