Most-quoted passages

The sentences later courts lift from this opinion, ranked by how many decisions quote each — the parts of the opinion doing the work. These counts are smaller than the citation total above because most of the 10 citing decisions cite the case generally; a passage count includes only decisions quoting that exact language verbatim.

  1. “Once the court determines that “cause” exists (and the Sections 1112(b) exceptions have not been established), Section 1112(b) offers a choice between converting the chapter 11 case to a case under chapter 7 or outright dismissal, “whichever is in the best interests of creditors and the estate,” 11 U.S.C.A. § 1112 (b) (West 2010). “Also, instead of either dismissal or conversion, the court may appoint a trustee or an examiner, if such appointment is in the best interests of creditors and the estate.” Collier on Bankruptcy ¶ 1112.04[7], at 1112-39-1112-40. The Code does not define the phrase “best interests of creditors and the estate.” Presumably, the parties will be the best judge of their own best interests, and if all of the parties agree on one course of action, the court should accommodate their desire. Id. at 1112-40 (footnote omitted).”
