Selected issues contesting in bankruptcy transactions "with a preference"

The author considers some of the problems faced by lawyers in the process of challenging transactions «with a preference» in bankruptcy, including the calculation of the statute of limitations for challenging transactions in bankruptcy of credit institutions. Indicates cases where the courts do not allocate separate grounds for challenging transactions with primary satisfaction of creditors’ interests, which leads to the practical impossibility of protecting the interests of defendants in such disputes. Concludes that a party to the transaction is not always the purchaser on it, namely, the acquirer shall apply the consequences of invalidity of the challenged transaction.
