What is the process for reorganizing a business in a Chapter 11 bankruptcy?

In Chapter 11 bankruptcy, businesses in New Jersey are able to reorganize and restructure their debts in order to become financially stable again. The process starts with a court-appointed trustee assigned to the case to oversee the reorganization. The business then has to present a plan of reorganization, which is a business plan that outlines the steps taking towards financial stability. This plan must be approved by the creditors and the court before implementation. After the plan is approved, the business must start making payments towards the plan. These payments are usually in the form of a percentage of the debt owed rather than the full amount. The payments are then distributed to creditors according to the terms of the plan. Creditors may also be able to receive equity in the company as part of the plan. The business is then monitored by the trustee to ensure that it is adhering to the terms of the plan and is taking the necessary steps to become financially stable. If the business is able to make payments as specified in the plan, it can emerge from bankruptcy with its business and assets intact. However, if the business fails to make payments or violate the terms of the plan, it may be forced into bankruptcy liquidation.
