In the wake of today's House Judiciary Committee hearing, I got a text from an attorney who pointed out that if the Sacklers themselves filed for bankruptcy, creditors could raise non-dischargeability challenges under section 523, including for "willful and malicious injury by the debtor to another entity or to the property of another entity" or, or under section 1141(d)(6) for false claims acts violations.
It is Congress week on Slips. On Thursday I will be testifying in front of the Senate Committee on Energy and Natural Resources in support of S. 375, Puerto Rico Recovery Accuracy in Disclosures Act of 2021 or PRRADA.
