Senate Likely to Back Matthews Substitute on Bankruptcy
Stanley Matthews proposes an insolvency reform allowing debtors who assign under state law to be declared bankrupt. If assets distributed within two years cover at least fifty percent of creditor claims, the debtor is discharged and may file for discharge in the U S district court where the assignment occurred. The court then decides discharge eligibility.
