A Chapter 11 bankruptcy is often called “reorganization bankruptcy” and is typically used to preserve and maximize the going concern value of the debtor’s business. The life cycle of a Chapter 11 bankruptcy case can be conceptualized in five stages. Part I of this series focused on the first three stages.

This article will focus on the middle and final stages of a Chapter 11 proceeding, why it is important for stakeholders to understand these stages, and how their rights and financial interests can be affected.
