bankruptcy case
Court debt resolution
A bankruptcy case is a legal proceeding in which a person or business seeks protection from creditors under bankruptcy law.
The case begins when the debtor files a petition and continues through resolution—whether debt discharge, reorganization, or liquidation.
The bankruptcy case dragged on for eighteen months before the company emerged with a restructured debt load.
