New World Orders: Post COVID Practice

The novel coronavirus has certainly induced many systemic changes around the world, and the bankruptcy and restructuring industry is no exception. What once worked in a pre-COVID-19 world might not work anymore, so parties must adapt quickly, often with no precedence upon which to rely. This panel will discuss the idiosyncrasies and novel ways bankruptcy practice is operating, restructuring and adapting to a “new normal,” and how constituencies on all sides of the table are approaching its unique aspects.

The Pros and Cons of Transactions Involving Distressed Hospitals and Health Care Providers

This panel will provide an analysis of the current levels of financial distress across the hospital, skilled-nursing and home-health sectors using various measurements, including distributions by state.

Bax Decision

This panel will discuss recent bankruptcy court decisions addressing the Delaware Court of Chancery’s decision in CML V LLC v. Bax, and how these decisions impact a creditors’ committee’s or any other creditor’s ability to bring derivative claims against third parties. The panelists will also provide examples of how committees and judges are solving this issue through financing orders and other methods.

Cannabis in Bankruptcy

The panel will briefly address the historical use of cannabis in America for medicinal purposes and the subsequent criminalization of cannabis, which was racially motivated. The panel will then discuss the challenges faced by corporate entities that seek to obtain bankruptcy protection when at least a portion of their income is derived from the sale or cultivation of cannabis, the lease of space to cannabis companies, or the sale or manufacture of products used in connection with a cannabis business. The panel also will discuss the nonbankruptcy options for these entities, as well as the financial hurdles faced by such entities. Finally, a representative from a community bank in Maryland will discuss the services that her bank is able to provide to cannabis dispensaries.
