Yaquinto v. Thompson St. Capital Partners – Bankruptcy trustee falls short on transfer challenge

Description

Abstract: In a recent fraudulent transfer case, flaws in the financial expert’s testimony proved to be a bankruptcy trustee’s Achilles’ heel. The trustee showed that the debtors transferred a property interest without receiving reasonably equivalent value. However, this article summarizes why the bankruptcy court concluded that the trustee didn’t meet his burden of proving the transfer was fraudulent. Yaquinto v. Thompson St. Capital Partners (In re Stone Panels, Inc.), No. 16-32856 (Bankr. N.D. Tex. Sept. 27, 2021).
