Book Synopsis Vulnerable Transactions in Corporate Insolvency by : John Armour
Download or read book Vulnerable Transactions in Corporate Insolvency written by John Armour and published by Bloomsbury Publishing. This book was released on 2003-02-13 with total page 572 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book examines powers and remedies available to a liquidator or administrator that render 'vulnerable' the company's prior contractual commitments or proprietary dispositions so as to enhance the asset pool available to creditors. In the process,the book does two things. First, it offers comprehensive accounts of the relevant causes of action: undervalue transactions, preferences, late floating charges, unregistered charges, transactions defrauding creditors, gratuitous corporate transactions and post-petition dispositions in liquidation. Secondly, it seeks to raise issues about the context and purpose of these causes of action, many of which have not yet been fully explored in the case law or academic literature. These are considered through a discussion of their relationship to the pari passu principle; a restitutionary analysis of the remedial provisions; and issues arising specifically in cross-border and international insolvency proceedings. The book is thus a source of reference both for insolvency litigators and for transactional lawyers seeking advice on potential vulnerability. The thematic approach and rigorous analysis will also make it of interest to an academic readership.
Book Synopsis Going for Broke by : Jean-Pierre Brun
Download or read book Going for Broke written by Jean-Pierre Brun and published by World Bank Publications. This book was released on 2019-12-06 with total page 224 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Going for Broke focuses on insolvency as an additional civil remedy in the arsenal of asset recovery practitioners, specifically in the context of grand corruption investigations and proceedings. The recovery of corruption proceeds is often sought through criminal prosecution and confiscation or civil lawsuits. Insolvency proceedings can also be an effective mechanism in the right circumstances, with their own advantages and disadvantages. The scenario that is most likely to benefit from this type of remedy is one in which bribes and stolen funds have been routed through special-purpose companies. This guidebook is intended as a practical tool to help policy makers, public officials, and those who have been entrusted with recovering their nations' stolen assets. It informs them about the ways that insolvency can be used to pursue proceeds of corruption. It may also serve as a quick reference for other practitioners: insolvency professionals, auditors, financial institutions, in-house counsel, and other professionals who deal with corruption.
Book Synopsis Proprietary Rights and Insolvency by : Richard Calnan
Download or read book Proprietary Rights and Insolvency written by Richard Calnan and published by Oxford University Press, USA. This book was released on 2016 with total page 445 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: "This topical title explains the circumstances in which a creditor of an insolvent debtor can take priority over other creditors by claiming a proprietary interest in assets held by the debtor. It focuses on the situation where the proprietary interests are created by operation of law or implied from the arrangements between the parties, rather than by express transfer or taking of security. The book clarifies the current state of the law in an important area of insolvency law (especially in times of economic crisis) where the law is not settled, taking into account the latest developments in case law, and suggesting how it might be simplified by going back to first principles, such as the way proprietary interests are transferred at common law and in equity. The book concerns both insolvency law and property law, being essentially concerned with the limits of the law of property, marking out its boundary with the law of obligations. It is of particular importance in common law systems because of the nature of equitable proprietary interests, and includes reference to Commonwealth authorities where relevant, including Australia, New Zealand and Canada. This work provides a structured and principled analysis of the topical and important area of creditors' proprietary rights in the event of insolvency of a debtor"--Provided by publisher.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The growth in prominence of the law of restitution and European Community law has resulted in the creation of a body of case law, which is contained within this work.

It is essential reading for practitioners as well as academics and postgraduate students.

Book Synopsis Reason and Restitution by : Charlie Webb
Download or read book Reason and Restitution written by Charlie Webb and published by Oxford University Press. This book was released on 2016-02-11 with total page 363 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In law, gains, like losses, don't always lie where they fall. The circumstances in which the law requires defendants to give up their gains are well documented in the work of unjust enrichment lawyers. The same cannot be said, however, of the reasons for ordering restitution of such gains. It is often suggested that unjust enrichment's existence can be demonstrated without inquiry into these reasons, into the principles of justice it represents and invokes. Yet while we can indeed show that there exists a body of claims dealing with the recovery of mistaken payments and the like without going on to inquire into their rationale, this isn't true of unjust enrichment's existence as a distinct ground of such claims. If unjust enrichment exists as a body of like cases and claims, truly independent of contract and tort, it does so by virtue of the distinct reasons it identifies and to which these claims respond. Reason and Restitution examines the reasons which support and shape claims in unjust enrichment and how these reasons bear on the law's resolution of these claims. The identity of these reasons matters. For one thing, unjust enrichment's status as a distinct ground of liability depends on the distinctiveness of these reasons. But, more importantly, it matters to those charged with the practical tasks of deciding cases and making laws, for it is these reasons alone which can direct how judges and legislators ought to respond to these claims.

Book Synopsis The Varieties of Restitution by : Ian Jackman
Download or read book The Varieties of Restitution written by Ian Jackman and published by . This book was released on 2017-03-17 with total page 226 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Over the past decade, the High Court has repeatedly rejected the notion that there is a unifying principle of unjust enrichment at the plaintiff's expense, in contrast to the position in the UK. This book provides a vigorous and sustained justification for the Australian position, and demonstrates that the law in the UK has generated more fictions than it was ever thought to abolish. The law of restitution is shown to comprise several fundamentally distinct legal concepts which fill gaps in the law of contract and tort, and which have nothing in common beyond the historical accident that they arose out of the action of indebitatus assumpsit. These are (i) the recovery of non-voluntary payments (by mistake, duress, undue influence, unconscionable dealing and total failure of consideration); (ii) remuneration for goods or services requested by the defendant in circumstances indicating a promise to pay for them; and (iii) the protection of certain facilitative institutions of private law (such as private property and fiduciary relationships). The book staunchly defends the traditional common law approach of analysing legal principles by the empirical method of treating like cases alike, rather than by derivation from supposedly unifying theories. This edition updates the first edition, which was published in 1998, in the light of almost 20 years of case-law and academic debate. It also adds a separate chapter dealing with the history of the law of restitution and why it matters.

Book Synopsis The Canadian Law of Unjust Enrichment and Restitution by : Mitchell McInnes

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: "Although it is often referred to as "the third branch of private law", alongside contract and tort, the law of unjust enrichment and restitution is not well understood. That is true for a variety of reasons. The subject is seldom taught in law school. Many of the traditional cases speak in a language that is incomprehensible to modern ears. Most significantly, until now, there has not been a text that is structured in accordance with the modern Canadian principle of unjust enrichment.
