How long does it take to get a plan of reorganization approved in a Chapter 11 bankruptcy?

In Utah, the amount of time it would take to get a plan of reorganization approved in a Chapter 11 bankruptcy depends on the complexity of the case and the number of creditors who must approve the plan. Generally, however, the process can take anywhere from six months to two years. The court will review the proposed plan of reorganization, determine if it is fair and equitable to all creditors, and decide whether or not to confirm the plan. Creditors are often involved in the process and the court will usually hold hearings to discuss objections, modifications, and changes to the proposed plan. Once the court has approved the plan of reorganization, it must then be sent out for approval to all of the creditors in the case. The creditors must then vote on the plan, and the majority must vote in favor of the plan for it to be approved. This process can take several weeks or months to complete. Once all creditors have approved the plan of reorganization, the court will enter a formal order confirming the plan. At this point, the plan is binding on all creditors and the debtor is required to follow the terms of the plan as outlined in the court order. Overall, it can take anywhere from six months to two years to get a plan of reorganization approved in Chapter 11 bankruptcy proceedings in Utah. The process can be complicated and time consuming, but with the help of experienced bankruptcy attorneys, the process can be successfully completed.
