The Supreme Court resolved a split of circuits in an opinion that could give support to the notion that arbitration agreements are not enforceable in bankruptcy.

Indianapolis Bankruptcy Judge Jeffrey Graham says that the bankruptcy court cannot become “another court of general jurisdiction.”

A judge sitting in a proper venue may transfer venue to a district that was improper originally.

Although a stock purchase and a loan payoff were one month apart, a district judge in Indiana found a sufficient nexus to invoke the safe harbor and dismiss a fraudulent transfer suit.

A federal district judge in New York holds that the safe harbor in Section 546(g) doesn’t preempt state fraudulent transfer laws.

Ninth Circuit says that the ‘person aggrieved’ standard for appellate standing was superseded by Article III standing on adoption of the Bankruptcy Code in 1978.

Even if an appeal is equitably moot, the appellate court nonetheless has appellate jurisdiction. Equitable mootness is prudential, not jurisdictional.

The Seventh Circuit explained how preponderance of the evidence became the standard of proof for turnovers and dischargeability when the Bankruptcy Code replaced the Bankruptcy Act.

Judge Goldblatt of Delaware wrote an opinion where the answer was self-evident but there was no authority on point.

It appears as though the Supreme Court will decide Lac du Flambeau based entirely on textual analysis of Section 106(a), which does not explicitly abrogate sovereign immunity as to Native American tribes.
