Disclosure Statements are Generally Eliminated

The Small Business Reorganization Act of 2019 (SBRA) became effective on the eve of the economic free fall stemming from the COVID-19 pandemic. Longleaf Law Partner’s bankruptcy law expert, Cindy G. Oliver, explains the new law in our 13-part series, Bankruptcy Buzz.

Part 9 of 13:

The elimination of the disclosure statement, an often lengthy document providing adequate information to a holder of a claim or interest entitled to vote to accept or reject a Chapter 11 plan of reorganization, is a time and cost savings that hopefully trickles down to the creditors. However, the bankruptcy court can order a small business debtor to file a disclosure statement if warranted. To a certain extent, the contents of a traditional disclosure statement are folded into a Subchapter V small business plan of reorganization, which is required to include a brief history of the debtor’s business operations, a liquidation analysis, and projections of the feasibility of the plan. The confirmation process in the new small business Subchapter V is simplified and condensed with the filing of a stand-alone plan of reorganization.
