Waiver of right to file bk
Steve:
You can file, but the creditor will argue at a 362 hearing that you gave up the right to the stay. The creditor will probably also argue the case was filed in bad faith, as you negotiated for a forbearance agreement and agreed to give up the stay.
So, you could lose the 362 hearing and a trustee could liquidate the remainder of your client's assets.
You have to negotiate to take the "stay" out of the quoted paragraph, or file the bk now.

I'm evaluating a Forbearance Agreement on a property which has a Notice of Sale pending on it. For a cool $20K up front cash, we're getting a 6 month continuance. Everyone's hoping the sale of the property will pay everyone. But we still want to have bankruptcy as a back pocket option. Yet the agreement has the language below.
My understanding is that you cannot contractually give away the right to filing bankruptcy. I was expecting this provision, but want to see if anyone wants to opine or has done recent research results of which can shared.
Borrowers are corporate and personal.
Thank you
Steve
