Bankruptcy Process and Procedure

In re Murray Energy Holdings Co.: BAP Hands Down Critical Practice Pointer on Defective Notices of Appeal

According to most courts, the failure to file a timely notice of appeal under Bankruptcy Rule [1] 8002 deprives the appellate court of subject-matter jurisdiction. [2] And even those courts holding that the deadline is not jurisdictional still hold that the deadline is mandatory. [3]

Appealability of Discovery Orders Under Chapter 15

On March 7, 2022, the U.S. Supreme Court in Estate of Omar Fontana v. ACFB Administração Judicial Ltda.-ME, No. 21-828 (U.S. Mar. 7, 2022), denied a petition for review of a decision by the Eleventh Circuit, In re Transbrasil S.A. Linhas Aéreas, 860 Fed. Appx 166 (11th Cir. 2021). The Eleventh Circuit held that an order denying a motion for a protective order to shield parties from discovery subpoenas in a chapter 15 proceeding was interlocutory and thus not final and appealable.
