Trusts and Estates

Estate Planning

Bankruptcy
In re Royal St. Bistro, LLC, 26 F.4th 326 (5th Cir. 2022), the U.S. Court of Appeals for the Fifth Circuit recognized the rights of lessees when the debtor sells an asset free and clear of all liens, claims and encumbrances. The focus is not necessarily under bankruptcy law but under state law. Yet, before reaching state law domain, the Fifth Circuit first reviewed the rights of lessees when a lease is rejected under Section 365 of the Bankruptcy Code and when a debtor/trustee sells an asset free and clear under Section 363 of the Bankruptcy Code.
Foreclosure
In the recent matter, Cowles Thompson represented an international law firm and two of its attorneys. Our clients had represented a lender who had sued homeowners for defaulting on their mortgage loan and recovered a judgment of foreclosure and subsequent eviction in 2019. The owners filed and lost several pro se lawsuits challenging the foreclosure, in which courts repeatedly found that the foreclosure and eviction orders were legally correct. But the pro se plaintiffs continued filing suits including suits against our clients as defendants. In other words, they sued their opponent’s lawyers.
