From the home page, click on “About ABI” and then “Committees” to see all of ABI’s committees. In the left-hand navigation in blue, click on “Bankruptcy Taxation.”

    Once you click on the Bankruptcy Taxation committee, you will notice that the left-hand navigation in blue has changed again. Within the main page, you will see a listing of the committee chairs, the committee listserves (where you can join or view the Bankruptcy Taxation committee listserve) and agendas for any upcoming meetings of the Bankruptcy Taxation Committee. In the left-hand navigation you will note that beneath “Bankruptcy Taxation” there are three new options: Minutes, Newsletter and Educational Materials. The “Minutes” page provides minutes from past Mass Torts Committee meetings. The “Newsletter” page provides all back issues of the Bankruptcy Taxation electronic newsletter.
