C&J Vantage Leasing Co. v. Wolfe: One Year Later
April 27, 2012
In March 2011, the Iowa Supreme Court sent ripples of concern, if not terror, throughout the equipment lease finance industry with an unprecedented decision refusing to afford finance lease status to a contract between a finance company and a commercial end user, notwithstanding the fact that the parties had expressly agreed to such treatment in their written documents.

An interesting recent decision in the Southern District has been brought to our attention. The case is <i>In Re Allied Capital Corp.</i>, CCH Fed. SEC L. Rep. 92411 (US DC, S.D.N.Y., Apr. 25, 2003). Judge Lynch's decision is well written, the Judge reviewing a motion to dismiss by a business development company, Allied Capital, against a strike suit claiming that Allied's method of valuing its portfolio failed adequately to account for i) conditions at the companies themselves and ii) market conditions.
