Date: March 24th, 2025 4:57 PM Author: Provocative cordovan nursing home party A sues party B for fraud and alleges all kinds of wilful and intentional behavior on party B's part.
party B enters into a settlement agreement with party A to settle the claim.
party B breaches the settlement agreement by failing to pay amounts owed under it.
Party A now has a breach of contract claim against party B.
Party A gets a judgment against party B for the amount of the settlement.
Party B discharges the amount owed to Party A as part of a bankruptcy filing because its based on breach of contract, while Party B could not have done so to get rid of the intentional tort claim.
Is there a flaw in this analysis?
Do defendants do this? |
Date: March 24th, 2025 5:02 PM Author: ceo I have a client in Party A's position. We were never notified of the BK before the bar date, so i think we'll get out without being discharged. But if he notified us he probably would have been able to do that (https://xoxohth.com/thread.php?thread_id=5699143&forum_id=2#48778188) |

Date: March 24th, 2025 5:05 PM Author: Provocative cordovan nursing home looks like theres a bunch of exceptions to discharge where the court is allowed to look at the claims a settlement agreement is settling before discharging a breach of K claim so it may not work after all (https://xoxohth.com/thread.php?thread_id=5699143&forum_id=2#48778195) |

Date: March 24th, 2025 5:08 PM Author: Slap-happy sienna trust fund wouldn’t party a still have a tort claim but for the effectiveness of a valid release through which the payments were structured? and wouldn’t the validity of that release likely hinge upon party b’s performance of those payments?

Date: March 24th, 2025 7:15 PM Author: fear-inspiring awkward sanctuary Depends on the language of the satisfaction agreement. It's fairly common to see that the release of the claim depends on actual performance (usually including payment). (https://xoxohth.com/thread.php?thread_id=5699143&forum_id=2#48778588) |
