Critical Vendor Motions
Chapter 11 debtors often file motions, usually at the outset of a case, that seek to pay prepetition unsecured amounts owed to 'critical' vendors that supply debtors with essential goods and services. Debtors argue that, unless such motions are granted, vendors will cease supplying them, and thus jeopardize their ability to reorganize. Court orders that grant critical vendor motions require vendors to continue supplying debtors on specified business terms in return for payment of the prepetition amounts owed.
