This has been a controversial question at the upper end of our practice over
the last 10 years. Some judges are taking the view that debtors should only
get 1 chance to reorganize and that the forbearance agreement is that
chance. They are enforcing the waiver. In most cases, however, it is not
enforceable. I would treat the stay as not waived and not waivable. Let
them file a relief from stay motion and argue that it is enforceable.

Subject: Re: [cdcbaa] Pre-petition stay waiver clause
Does anyone know if a pre-petition stay waiver clause in an agreement, in
this case a forebearance agreement, has been held as enforceable in our
district or circuit?
Thanks.
