What is a “debtor-in-possession financing statement” in a Chapter 11 bankruptcy?

A “debtor-in-possession financing statement” is an important document in a Chapter 11 bankruptcy in Nevada. It is basically an agreement between a debtor and a creditor. It is created to ensure the creditor receives payment for the money they lent the debtor. The document explains the terms of repayment and states the amount of money the debtor has borrowed, when the payments are due and how much interest will be charged. The debtor-in-possession financing statement must be filed in the state of Nevada in order to be legally binding. Once filed, the creditor is entitled to be repaid. This document is a priority in the bankruptcy case. It is considered a secured debt, meaning it must be paid first before any other debts. Without a debtor-in-possession financing statement, the creditor would have no legal right to any of the money they loaned and could be completely wiped out in the bankruptcy. The debtors can keep their possessions and continue to run their business while in bankruptcy. This is done by reorganizing their debts with the help of a debtor-in-possession financing statement. When approved, it provides the debtor with funds to continue to operate their business and make payments on their debts. It is important to note that even if the debtor is granted a debtor-in-possession financing statement, the terms of the bankruptcy must still be followed in order to receive the financing.
