Farmer Favoritism: Statutory Protections for Creditors in Agricultural Bankruptcy Cases


Agricultural Issues, Bankruptcy Code / May 20, 2014 / John J. Kane

Jason Binford and I recently published an article in the Texas Tech Law Review entitled, Farmer Favoritism: Statutory Protections for Creditors in Agricultural Bankruptcy Cases.  The article discusses several different types of special interest statutes that could allow particular creditors to recover on their claim ahead of other creditors.  Parties in bankruptcy cases without an understanding of these statutory protections risk the possibility of leaving behind significant funds that otherwise may have been recoverable.
