Professor Andrew Dawson recently presented his paper “Federalism Issues in Municipal Bankruptcy: The Preemptive Scope of Chapter 9” at the Young Bankruptcy Scholars' Work-in-Progress Workshop, held at Brooklyn Law School. The paper explores the tensions between state and federal laws during municipal bankruptcy and, more broadly, questions of city governance during bankruptcy. This represents Professor Dawson’s continued exploration of municipal bankruptcy issues, following his publication of “Pensioners, Bondholders, and Unfair Discrimination in Municipal Bankruptcy” in the University of Pennsylvania Journal of Business Law. Professor Dawson’s research interests includes reorganizations, cross-border insolvency, contracts and commercial law.
