2009/2010 ANNUAL REPORT: |
This Section provided free continuing education training for
its members through monthly brown bag luncheons held in
Baltimore and Greenbelt, and its electronic discussion group
continues to be one of the most active of any Section. It
sponsored two CLE courses on general bankruptcy matters
and worked closely with the staff of the United States
Bankruptcy Court by coordinating focus group discussions
to assist the Court with unrepresented debtors in bankruptcy,
leading to the Bankruptcy Court's creation of a new pro bono
assistance program called the Debtor Assistance Project. The
Section added online video stream seminars to its library
of sample pleadings and other materials available on its
homepage, and also launched an electronic newsletter, the
Hanging Paragraph. It will present a unique program on how
the various branches of our state government are responding
to the foreclosure crisis at the MSBA Annual Meeting.
