Connelly: Limits on funding cross-purchase agreements

September 10, 2024

12:30 to 1:30 PM EDT

 

Abstract

The use of life insurance to fund cross-purchase agreements with life insurance:

In June 2024 the U.S. Supreme Court issued a unanimous opinion in Connelly v. United States. The case addressed the valuation of a closely held business and will significantly impact estate planning for many family and closely held businesses. The corporation held insurance on the life of a shareholder with the expectation that the proceeds would be used to fund an obligatory buyout of that person’s equity interest. The Court held that the existence of the obligation could not be used to reduce the value of the entity. The Supreme Court’s ruling resolves a conflict between the 8th and 11th Circuit Courts of Appeals.

   What Cost Tenant Evictions:  Harms and Protections

 

                                                         Abstract

 

Evictions are on the rise—in the past year, there have been more than a million eviction filings and that in only ten states. 

Evictions can have devastating impacts on tenants, the community and the economy. Persistent housing shortages and

thin social safety nets lead to homelessness and all its social and psychological losses.  The existing legal regime for

processing evictions impose hardships on both sides of the dynamic—either too perfunctory for tenants or too protracted

for landlords.  The panelists will discuss some of the new initiatives, including the right to counsel, the requirement of

good cause, caps on rent increases, and their efficacy for a fairer eviction system.

Nicole Summers, Georgetown Univ. Law Center

             12:30 to 1:30 ET

Uniform Mortgage Modification Act

Abstract

 

The recently promulgated Uniform Mortgage Modification Act aims to make mortgage modifications less risky, principally by establishing a series of safe harbors.   The drafters explained that a uniform law would provide predictability in transactions and reduce delays associated with mortgage loan modifications. Additionally, the uniform law is expected to reduce costs by obviating the need and expense of recording amendments and obtaining  new title policies.   The panelists will discuss the provisions of the act, as well as its expected impacts on mortgage law.

A Lawyer’s Guide to the National Zoning Atlas

Abstract 

 

The National Zoning Atlas is a new and groundbreaking online tool that provides an array of historical and current data

on types and effects of zoning codes around the country.  The Atlas promises great utility for both planners, as they rethink

existing zoning regimes, and practitioners, as they challenge them.  The panelists will demonstrate the mechanics of the

Atlas and describe how it can be used in litigation and analysis  of zoning regulations.

trends in private homeowner’s insurance and state responses to the mushrooming crisis.

             Spotlight on Land Use Deregulation, Thursday May 15, 2025,  12 to 1pm ET

 

                                                                                                                                                                Abstract

For the past several years, scholars and advocates have been sounding the alarm about local land use and zoning laws unduly restricting critical development. In response to what some describe as outsized influence of neighbors, progressive advocates have been calling for state deregulation of local land use laws to make way for housing density, renewable energy infrastructure, and other necessary uses. But other scholars warn of babies and bathwater, frying pans and fires. They remind us that cities have traditionally been the loci of land use innovation. The debate has new urgency as states around the country debate which level of government is best equipped to tack the affordable housing and climate crises gripping the nation.
