The proposed bill would introduce the "Uniform Assignment for Benefit of Creditors Act," which would replace existing statutes that require assignments to distribute property among creditors in proportion to their claims and necessitate the consent of each creditor. Key provisions would establish specific requirements for assignees, including that they cannot be creditors or insiders of the assignor, and would define the roles and responsibilities of both assignors and assignees. The bill would also mandate that assignment agreements be documented in a signed record and require assignees to notify creditors of the assignment within 30 days, enhancing transparency and streamlining the assignment process. Additionally, the bill would update current statutes by allowing courts to remove an assignee for cause, requiring a successor assignee to be appointed under certain circumstances, and discharging an assignee from duties upon proper accounting. It would also clarify the rights and responsibilities of ancillary assignees and ensure the recognition of assignments made under the laws of other states. Key updates would include provisions for the submission and validation of claims, the establishment of a reserve for disputed claims, and guidelines for interim distributions, all aimed at enhancing clarity, accountability, and fairness in the management of assignment estates.
