In a closely watched case, the U.S. Court of Appeals for the Third Circuit recently moved to halt the proposed merger of Penn State Hershey Medical Center and PinnacleHealth System in Federal Trade Commission v. Penn State Hershey Medical Center, No. 16-2365, slip op. (3d Cir. Sept. 27). Since December 2015, when the Federal Trade Commission (FTC) and the commonwealth of Pennsylvania joined forces to formally oppose the merger in court, health care industry stakeholders have eagerly awaited developments in the case. In May, the U.S. District Court for the Middle District of Pennsylvania issued a sharp rebuke of the FTC, denying its request for a preliminary injunction.

There are many issues for creditors to consider during the Chapter 11 plan confirmation process. One such issue involves the dischargeability of a claim that accrues pre-petition, continues to accrue after the filing of the debtor's Chapter 11 petition, and extends beyond confirmation of the debtor's plan of reorganization. The recent decision in In re Castellino Villas, A.K.F, D.C. No. 2:12-cv-07282-JFW (9th Cir. 2016) highlights the importance to creditors of negotiating language expressly preserving a contractual right to attorney fees incurred in litigation commenced pre-petition that continues post-petition and post-confirmation.ADR Business Wakes Up to Glaring Deficit of Diversity
