Event Summary

The Supreme Court’s decision on Purdue Pharma has changed the rules for third-party releases, exculpations, and injunctions in bankruptcy cases. Courts and practitioners are now reconsidering how and whether these tools can help resolve complicated disputes in Chapter 11 and Chapter 15 proceedings.

This webinar will take a close look at the current situation after Purdue. It will offer practical advice on how to structure and defend these provisions in bankruptcy plans.
Join Sam J. Alberts, Partner at Dentons, Minyao Wang, Partner at Lewis Brisbois Bisgaard & Smith LLP, and Lauren R. Lifland, Counsel at Wilmer Cutler Pickering Hale and Dorr LLP, for this CLE webinar as they explore recent case law, and strategies for navigating the evolving standards surrounding third-party releases, exculpations, and injunctions.

Key Topics:

 Post-Purdue developments shaping third-party releases, exculpations, and injunctions.
 Structuring plans to improve enforceability.
 Disclosure, due process, and creditor consent considerations.
 Responding to challenges from U.S. Trustees.
 Alternative strategies when approval of these provisions is uncertain.
