Kurtin v. Ehrenberg (In re Elieff), 637 B.R. 612 (B.A.P. 9th Cir. Mar. 21, 2022)

By Los Angeles Bankruptcy Attorney on March 22, 2022

Kurtin v. Ehrenberg (In re Elieff), 637 B.R. 612 (B.A.P. 9th Cir. Mar. 21, 2022): The 9th Circuit Bankruptcy Appellate Panel (BAP) ruled that when a claim is subordinated, pursuant to 11 USC §510(b), that any liens and encumbrances securing the claim that is subordinated, are subordinated as well. This is a significant decision, because it means subordination of a claim pursuant to Section 510(b) would also subordinate liens and other encumbrances.
