(Stream A - Market Dislocations) Panel: The evolution of the Texas two-step
Debtors facing mass tort liabilities are using a lesser-known Texas law that allows a business in the Lone Star State to perform a divisive merger in order to preserve and protect the legacy entity’s assets whilst resolving its mass tort liabilities through the Chapter 11 process. Johnson & Johnson’s debtor subsidiary LTL Management recently made efforts to extend the reach of the Texas two-step, seeking to suspend two state actions in New Mexico and Mississippi pending against LTL and certain non-debtor entities, including J&J, during the pendency of LTL’s Chapter 11 case.
