The 9th U.S. Circuit Court of Appeals sounded ready Monday to uphold an injunction prohibiting the federal government from investigating or punishing California doctors who recommend marijuana to patients. Though the judges could remand the case in light of last year's U.S. Supreme Court decision on medical marijuana, they expressed few reservations about the injunction and seemed almost eager to keep it in place.

Mitchell A. Seider, a partner at Latham & Watkins, and Karen Goldstein, an associate with the firm, discuss the circuit split the U.S. Supreme Court will soon settle on whether a nonconsensual plan of reorganization must give dissenting secured creditors an opportunity to credit bid when the plan provides for the sale of the secured creditors' collateral, and write that while an overruling of 'River Road' may allow for sale of collateral without credit bidding under a plan, secured creditors may, with some complications, still have the benefit of credit bidding.
