Program Description:
Lawyers who act as court appointed receivers, lawyers who represent court appointed receivers, and lawyers who defend professionals in litigation brought by court appointed receivers discuss various unique issues encountered in this kind of litigation. Are there rules? If so, what are they and where are they found? How do receivers decide who to sue? Can receivers do things that the entity in receivership could not do? Are there limits on what receivers can do in various different contexts? Join our panelists to find out.
