Small business or Subchapter V case
Term · Law · MLC-T-LAW-000206
The Bankruptcy Code allows small business debtors to file for relief under two different special categories of Chapter 11 - small business or subchapter V. A debtor may elect either of these two options based on certain eligibility criteria. Both small business and subchapter V cases are treated differently than a traditional Chapter 11 case primarily due to accelerated deadlines and the speed with which the plan is confirmed.
