In re Jefferson County

How courts have described this case

Verbatim parenthetical descriptions written by other courts when citing this decision. Ranked by citation-network relevance.

• reasoning that the absence of limiting language in section 922(a)(1) means the section’s “reach is not limited to just pre-bankruptcy claims”
• the court concluded after interpreting the statute and reviewing federal case law that § 959(a) applies only if the trustee or receiver is appointed by a federal court
• “Indeed, a primary determinant for abstaining pursuant to § 1334(c)(1) and the case law abstention doctrines is whether a case presents unsettled or difficult questions of state law.”
• “All those who attribute Jefferson County’s bankruptcy case ... only to conduct and actions by the County are ill-informed. The State of Alabama and its legislators are a significant, precipitating cause.”
