Dear Friends,

As Passover approaches, my heart is filled with gratitude for each of you. In the story of Passover, we find themes of liberation and new beginnings, and it’s a time that reminds us of the incredible support and warmth we all bring into each other’s life and our community.

Whether we're close by or miles apart, the spirit of this holiday bridges any distance between us, reinforcing the cherished connections we share. Let us use this Passover to renew our bonds and commit to nurturing our community with the same tenacity and strength that our ancestors showed.

Wishing you and your family a meaningful and joyous Passover!

The new rules and amendments to the current bankruptcy code - Small Business Reorganization Act (“SBRA”) and the “Coronavirus Air, Relief and Economic Security Act” (“CARES Act”) - allow businesses to survive, retain key employees and restructure operations. Some of the important changes to chapter 11 filings for eligible sub-chapter V individuals or a businesses are as follows:

• The unsecured debt limit has increased from $2,725,625 to $7.5 million (the original limit will return after one year);
• No creditors’ committee would be appointed in a case unless ordered by the court;
• No United States Trustee fees;
• Th debtor can file a plan which would not require voting by creditors;
• A debtor’s plan can modify a mortgage against a principal residence, provided that the mortgage loan was not used primarily to acquire the residence; and
• A debtor must file its plan (no disclosure statement is required) within 90 days of the bankruptcy filing (subject to extension under limited circumstances).

To the extent employees need time off to, among other things, care for family members with COVID-19 or children whose schools or places of care have been closed, covered employers must follow the Family and Medical Leave Act (FMLA) as well as state and local equivalents, as well as all relevant paid family leave laws. The Families First CoronaVirus Response Act was just signed into law on March 19, 2020 providing additional protections for employees, requiring employers to fully comply with certain complicated rules in this regard.

At Farivar Law, we are well equipped to answer all employer's concerns regarding employees, the new FMLA rules as well as state and local equivalents as a result of COVID-19. Feel free to reach us at [email protected] or 818-796-2060.
