In Re: Ganess Maharaj, No. 11-1747 (4th Cir. 2012)
Annotate this CaseIn this direct appeal from the Bankruptcy Court, the court addressed whether, in light of the 2005 amendments to the Bankruptcy Code, 11 U.S.C. 101 et seq., codified by the Bankruptcy Abuse Prevention and Consumer Protection Act (BAPCPA), Pub. L. No. 109-8, 119 Stat. 23, the absolute priority rule continued to apply to individual debtors in possession proceeding under Chapter 11. The court answered in the affirmative. The court concluded that the absolute priority rule as it applied to individual debtors in Chapter 11 had not been abrogated by BAPCPA and affirmed the bankruptcy court's order denying plan confirmation.
