<title>9th Circuit Says Insurers Can Object To Thorpe's Confirmed Chapter 11 Plan</title>
<description>
<![CDATA[SAN FRANCISCO - Because Thorpe Insulation Co.'s Chapter 11 plan of reorganization could harm insurance companies, the plan is not "insurance neutral" and, therefore, the insurers have standing to object to it, the Ninth Circuit U.S. Court of Appeals held Jan. 24 in reversing approval of the plan and remanding the case so the insurers' arguments can be heard (Motor Vehicle Casualty Company, et al. v. Thorpe Insulation Company, et al.[In The Matter of Thorpe Insulation Company] and National Fire Insurance Company of Hartford, et al. v. Thorpe Insulation Company, et al. [In the Matter of Thorpe Insulation Company], Nos. 10-56543 and 10-56622, 9th Cir.; 2012 U.S. App. LEXIS 1272; See March 2011, Page 7).

<title>Asbestos Estimation In Today's Bankruptcies: The Central Importance Of The New Trusts</title>
<description>
<![CDATA[By Philip Bentley and David Blabey Jr. As many commentators have observed, a sea change has occurred in asbestos litigation over the past decade. During the first four years of the 21st century most of the principal asbestos defendants filed for bankruptcy protection. In the wake of those bankruptcy filings, the plaintiffs' bar turned its attention to companies that previously had played only a peripheral role in asbestos litigation - companies whose products caused far less exposure to asbestos than did those of the newly bankrupt companies. For the first time, asbestos suits began to target these once-peripheral companies. As a result, both the number and the value of claims filed against these remaining defendants sky-rocketed.

<title>Alternatives To Section 524(g)</title>
<description>
<![CDATA[By Philip Bentley and David Blabey Jr. The decision to file for bankruptcy is never an easy one. But to companies considering a chapter 11 filing to address their asbestos liabilities, there is often a powerful deterrent not present in other contexts: the looming specter of section 524(g) of the Bankruptcy Code. That section has been commonly understood to confer on asbestos personal injury claimants an effective veto over any plan of reorganization they do not approve. However, it may not in fact be the case that every asbestos debtor need comply with the strict requirements of section 524(g).
