- Bankruptcy Law and Practice by This is the Fifth Edition of Bankruptcy Law and Practice, a Casebook Designed to Train Lawyers for the Practice of Bankruptcy Law. It is designed for a one-semester course in debtor/creditor law and bankruptcy. The book deals with both creditor remedies and debtor protections, starting with state law collection remedies, exemptions, and the important special protections for secured creditors under both Article 9 of the Uniform Commercial Code and state real property recording acts. After a thorough review of state law debt collection practice, the book covers the basics of straight bankruptcy law with a focus on Chapter 7 of the Bankruptcy Code, both for individuals and businesses. Although the book has a practice focus, it covers the major Supreme Court cases (including those decided in June 2024), and important appellate cases with an emphasis on areas of uncertainty. The book also emphasizes the Bankruptcy Code itself, using problem sets to get students to work through the language of the Bankruptcy Code.
- Fraudulent Transfers I - Types by The lesson covers the 2014 Uniform Voidable Transactions Act (a slightly amended Uniform Fraudulent Transfers Act) and section 548 of the Bankruptcy Code. Two subsequent lessons cover (a) defenses and (b) the application of fraudulent transfer law to Leveraged Buyouts (LBOs).
