NY Bankruptcy Court: REMIC Investor Lacks Standing In Chapter 11 Case Where Debtor's Property Secures Loan Included In Pool Held By Trust

Lexology reports:
  • In a recent decision, the Bankruptcy Court for the Southern District of New York concluded that an investor in a Real Estate Mortgage Investment Conduit ("REMIC") lacked standing to object to the sale of a chapter 11 debtor's real property, despite that the property served as collateral for loans held in trust by the REMIC for the benefit of its investors.
