Overview: A federal power marketing agency violated 11 U.S.C.S. § 362(a)'s automatic stay by terminating its executory contract with the debtor power producer because it had not sought relief from stay before terminating the contract even if an ipso facto clause and the Anti-Assignment Act, 41 U.S.C.S. § 15, would have allowed it to do so.

View this case - free  

Overview: The setting aside of a tax sale for violation of the automatic stay was vacated and remanded because, since a trustee's right to avoid post-petition transfers was granted by 11 U.S.C.S. § 549, lower court analyses of whether a co-owner, as assignee of the trustee, had the right under 11 U.S.C.S. § 362 to avoid the tax sale was flawed.
