Wednesday, March 18, 2026, from 12:00 PM to 1:30 PM (ET)
The Supreme Court’s decision on Purdue Pharma has changed the rules for third-party releases, exculpations, and injunctions in bankruptcy cases. Courts and practitioners are now reconsidering how and whether these tools can help resolve complicated disputes in Chapter 11 and Chapter 15 proceedings.
This webinar will take a close look at the current situation after Purdue. It will offer practical advice on how to structure and defend these provisions in bankruptcy plans.
