Who Do I Need To Pay in a Reorganization Plan?
A Chapter 11 bankruptcy is a way to reorganize and rehabilitate a debtor with his/her/its creditors. In addition to the standard bankruptcy petition filed in a Chapter 7 bankruptcy, a Chapter 11 bankruptcy contains a reorganization plan prioritizing payments to certain creditors. A Chapter 11 bankruptcy is used by those debtors whose debts to creditors are too large to fit into a Chapter 12.
Once the Chapter 11 petition is filed and the creditor matrix is uploaded, the court will send notice to all unsecured creditors of the filing and ask whether they would like to be part of the unsecured creditors committee. This committee can submit its own reorganization plan in opposition to the debtor’s reorganization plan. A plan must, at minimum, repay those creditors in the amount they would have received had the debtor filed for Chapter 7 bankruptcy.
