First stop on appeal: ABI's Bankruptcy Appeals Manual
Q: I am unclear whether the order issued by my bankruptcy judge can be appealed as an interlocutory order under 28 U.S.C.A. § 158. Unfortunately, all the materials I have found on the topic are enormous (even the American Law Reports annotation is 73 pages long)! Isn't there a manageable list of appealable interlocutory bankruptcy orders somewhere?
A: You can find such a list in Appendix C of the newly released ABI's Bankruptcy Appeals Manual database (ABI-BANKAM) on Westlaw. This list contains a wide variety of appealable orders. Each order is followed by a link to one or more appellate decisions discussing the order.
ABI-BANKAM contains the full text of the Bankruptcy Appeals Manual, an American Bankruptcy Institute publication by Samuel R. Maizel and Jessica D. Gabel that offers easy-to-read guidance for practitioners on both sides of a bankruptcy appeal. You can search ABI-BANKAM using the Terms and Connectors or Natural Language search method. You can also use the Table of Contents service to browse the contents and retrieve relevant sections by clicking section names.
