Background.
A case filed under chapter 11 of the United States Bankruptcy Code is frequently referred to as a "reorganization" bankruptcy.
Usually, the debtor remains “in possession,” has the powers and duties of a trustee, may continue to operate its business, and may, with court approval, borrow new money.
There is no time limit on completing the repayment plan.
Most take between six months and two years.
The Chapter 11 filing fee is $1,738, but that's just the start since Chapter 11 bankruptcies are usually complicated.
Secured creditors are first in line, as their claims over assets are often secured by collateral and a contract.
Some assets may have multiple liens placed upon them; in these cases, the first lien has priority over the second lien.
