The ABI Endowment recently awarded a grant to the University of California Hastings College of Law on behalf of faculty member Prof. Jared Ellias, a 2020 ABI “40 Under 40” honoree, for a study titled “Bankruptcy Trauma.” Among bankruptcy practitioners and in the academic literature, there is a strong belief that filing for chapter 11 hurts a corporation. In bankruptcy practice, this theory that chapter 11 harms businesses often leads managers to avoid or delay filing for bankruptcy — even when doing so
would unlock tools that could help restructure the business — and bankruptcy judges to abridge and limit the process created by Congress.
