Background

28 U.S.C. § 589b authorizes the Department of Justice to issue rules requiring uniform periodic reports filed by debtors-in-possession or trustees in cases under chapter 11 of title 11. Accordingly, on December 21, 2020, the “Procedures for Completing Uniform Periodic Reports in Non-Small Business Cases Filed Under Chapter 11 of Title 11” rule was published in the Federal Register.

For additional background, "Introducing the USTP’s New Chapter 11 Periodic Reports," an article written by USTP staff, appeared in the February 2021 issue of ABI Journal. This article discusses the basis for the Final Rule, the USTP’s development of consensus views through robust stakeholder participation during the rule-making process, and tips for implementing the new uniform MOR and PCR forms in practice.
