You Gotta Have Faith: Exploring Concepts of Good Faith and Bad Faith

This panel will explore how good faith and bad faith are used in the Code and when it matters, how “developed” these notions are in the case law, and balancing the debtor’s right to dismiss when facing a motion to convert for cause under § 1307 for bad faith. The panelists will consider Marrama v. Citizens Bank of Massachusetts and Law v. Siegel, the effect on property of the estate in a converted case under § 348 when converted in “in bad faith,” when a plan is not considered proposed in good faith under § 325, § 707(b)(3) dismissals when there is no presumption of abuse, avoiding a dismissal under § 521 related to document production, and filing a “repeat” debtor in a 7 when a 13 was filed less than six years prior under the “70% claims paid/plan proposed in good faith” exception.

Dueling Allegiances? Ethical Issues for Estate Professionals Involving Former Clients, Concurrent Clients and Dual Representations

Everyone knows that estate professionals must be disinterested and able to represent the debtor free of conflicts. But what happens when the professional represents a related nondebtor party — for example, the private-equity sponsor or the sole member/shareholder? What if the professional has relationships with others in the case? The professional may bring significant experience and value to the table, some being derived from its prior representation of the debtor, creditors or others involved in the case. When do these considerations outweigh the interests of the estate and the integrity of the system? Is disclosure of the potential conflicts and relationships enough? This panel will explore these and related issues to help guide professionals and judges alike.
