What's New at ABI World
Online Features of Interest to the Young
and New Members Committee
Read the
latest
article posted in the “Cracking
the Code Interactive Newsletter ,” by Andrew M. Russin, titled
"Life Insurance Valuation Unearths Hidden Value." You
see one every day—a life insurance policy on a petitioner's financial
statement. Until recently, the choices for dealing with an unwanted life
insurance policy have been limited. Recently, however, a market for life
settlements has developed. With that market has come the opportunity,
and perhaps a duty, to have your clients' life insurance policies appraised
by a professional valuation service.
Transcripts
of two bankruptcy cases argued before the Supreme Court during the Nov.
3–12 session are now available online at ABI World. The cases include
the debtor’s waiver of untimely objection to discharge and awarding
fees from chapter 7 estate to debtor’s counsel.
The Bankruptcy
Telecommunications Manual is available through the online publications
catalog. Written by the bankruptcy and financial restructuring group at
Wiley Rein & Fielding LLP, the book provides an overview of basic
bankruptcy law for the telecom professional and basic communication law
for the insolvency professional. Other recent titles added to ABI's publications
catalog include the Consumer Bankruptcy Manual (Fundamentals of Chapter
7 and Chapter 13 of the U.S. Bankruptcy Code), European Union Regulation
on Insolvency Proceedings: An Introductory Analysis and First-day Motions:
A Practical Guide to the Critical First Days of a Bankruptcy Case. These
titles and more are available through the online
publications catalog .
The latest
bankruptcy court
opinions and circuit
case updates are made available at ABI world every week.
