This session introduces bankruptcy basics, such as the process for commencement of a bankruptcy case, the automatic stay that is imposed on creditor action upon filing of a bankruptcy petition, and sources of information. Once in bankruptcy, the law provides for treatment of executory contracts and unexpired leases, with various rights and remedies available depending on whether the debtor is the landlord or tenant. The discussion will cover pre-bankruptcy planning considerations, as well as participation and problem solving during the proceeding.
