Understand the elements of an avoidable preference.
The bankruptcy code allows the trustee or debtor-in-possession to bring into the bankruptcy estate certain assets transferred shortly before the filing of the case. The policy underlying this procedure is that the debtor should not be allowed to prefer certain persons or creditors over other similarly situated creditors. If the bankruptcy court finds that a particular transfer was a preference, then the transfer is avoided. This white paper reviews avoidable preferences and the exceptions, as well as Chapter 7 liquidation and exempt assets.
