Although a creditors’ committee represents the interests of all general unsecured creditors, committee members often have competing interests. This panel discussion will explore the types of conflicts and intercreditor issues that can arise, the impact of those issues on the ability of the committee to perform its duties, and how disputes among committee members are resolved.

What happens when the lender or debtor is missing key documents or has inadequate documentation? What if there is a lack of original signatures? These and other practical topics will be discussed.

The panel will discuss GOB and consignment issues, consumer privacy issues and WARN Act issues and will address the following question: Does reorganization exist for middle-market retailers?

This panel will discuss chapter 11 trustee appointments.

This panel will discuss game theories and claims trading, the private-equity angle, pre-petition debt-buying, due-process issues and information-adequacy issues in first-day sale motions.

This panel will discuss data-retention concerns for bankruptcy trustees.

This panel will discuss potential conflicts when a lender regularly recommends that a debtor hire their preferred CRO (the debtor is the CRO’s client, but a “one off” client) and the lender is a repeat business, as well as the 1% Rule and retention application disclosures/potential conflicts.
