  • Negotiating a Waiver of Distraint: a Landlord's Primer
    Negotiating a Waiver of Distraint: A Landlord’s Primer By Lisa Roscoe (*This release is based on an article published in The Shopping Newsletter. ) ___________ It is not unusual for a tenant to seek financing from time to time throughout the term of a lease, and, particularly in the current economic climate, tenants may require financing to stay afloat. Prior to advancing any funds, lenders will often require that the landlord execute what is commonly called a “waiver of distraint,” whereby the landlord foregoes its distress rights – the ability to seize tenant property in order to pay arrears of rent. Although onerous at first glance, this request is actually quite tolerable if the result is a rent-paying, continuously operating tenant. However, a landlord need not execute the “standard” form of waiver provided by the lender. The landlord in this situation has a fair amount of bargaining power, and should use it to reach an agreement that accommodates the lender while still preserving some of the landlord’s basic rights. Landlords should try to achieve the following during negotiations: Don’t Waive, Postpone. The first priority for a landlord should be to amend the form such that the landlord does not actually waive its distress rights, but rather postpones its right to distrain in favour of the lender. In doing so, the landlord has preserved its right to distrain against any of the tenant’s chattels and fixtures that may remain on the premises after the lender has realized on its security, while still maintaining its priority above other potential creditors.

  • December 31, 2003 2003
    2003 Publication 2104 (Rev. 12-2003) Catalog Number 23655L December 31, 2003 2003 INTERNAL REVENUE SERVICE This report is dedicated to Bob Wenzel who, over the course of his forty year career with the IRS, most recently as Acting Commissioner, was able to successfully balance being a tax administrator par excellence and having compassion for the ordinary taxpayer. PREFACE PREFACE Honorable Members of Congress, It is my pleasure to submit to you for your review the National Taxpayer Advocate’s 2003 Annual Report to Congress. Three themes are evident throughout this report. First, Congress and the IRS must act quickly and decisively to address several extremely serious problems confronting taxpayers. Second, IRS resources must be applied in a way that achieves a reasonable balance between enforcement activity, on the one hand, and cus- tomer service and taxpayer rights, on the other. Third, Congress and the IRS need to undertake more thorough research to ensure that legislative and administrative responses to perceived problems in tax administration are rooted in fact rather than impression or anecdote, and that initiatives actually achieve what they are designed to accomplish. As required by statute, this report identifies and discusses 20 of the most serious problems encountered by taxpayers. The problem that I believe requires the most immediate and thorough response is the growing reach of the individual Alternative Minimum Tax. This problem is looming over all of us – taxpayers, Congress, the IRS. In the years to come, the IRS will be faced with applying resources to make adjustments to the returns of increasing numbers of taxpayers who were unaware that they, too, “won” the AMT lot- tery.

It has been accepted for inclusion in Dickinson Law Review by an authorized editor of Dickinson Law IDEAS. For more information, please contact [email protected]. COMMENT I GARNISHMENT OF WAGES IN PENNSYLVANIA: ITS HISTORY AND RATIONALE* Unlike the majority of jurisdictions, Pennsylvania has per- sistently exempted a debtor's wages or salary from attachment and execution by process against his employer as garnishee. This Com- ment will trace the history and application of this limitation upon the rights of creditors, compare the Pennsylvania position with that of several other states, and attempt to reevaluate its rationale in the context of contemporary commercial practice and policy. By definition, garnishment is a "statutory proceeding where- by [a] person's property, money, or credits in possession or under control of, or owing by, another are applied to payment of [the] former's debt to [a] third person . ."' The term is also said to describe a warning to the person in whose hands the debtor's ef- fects are attached not to pay or deliver to the debtor, but to ap- pear and answer the claiming creditor's suit.2 As applied to wages and salaries, the process requires an employer to withhold all or part of an employee's compensation and pay it over directly to, or to the account of, the employee's creditor.

The department is committed to working with you to establish the accurate tax debt owed and to establish acceptable payment arrangements. There are many options available depending on your circumstances. What are my payment options? z Payment in full is always accepted. z You can pay your delinquent tax debt with your debit card. We also accept Visa and MasterCard. z We can set up a payment plan. If you can pay off the balance within 12 months, we can set up a plan for you over the phone. The balance is simply divided by 12 to arrive at a monthly payment. The final payment will be an estimate because interest will have continued to accrue. You will need to call for the final payoff balance. If you cannot pay off the balance within 12 months, you will need to fill out a financial statement. Based on this information, we will make a payment arrangement with you. You will be required to file any missing year’s tax returns.

  • PPSA- Distress and Landlord Waivers
    PDF 8-10 "PPSA – DISTRESS AND LANDLORD WAIVERS " Prepared By: Natalie Vukovich LSUC Conference – PPSA for Real Estate Lawyers November 6, 2006 ____________________________________________________________________________________________________ 20 Queen Street West, Suite 3000, Toronto, Ontario, M5H 3R3 Tel 416 597-6888 Fax 416 597-8897 Web www.dv-law.com PPSA - Distress and Landlord Waivers Natalie Vukovich Daoust Vukovich LLP I. OVERVIEW Most commercial businesses, including those that are operated from leased locations, require financing. Borrowers are invariably asked by their lenders to put up some collateral as security against defaults under the financing terms. They may offer to secure inventory, book debts, furniture, equipment and fixtures; those who are tenants may also offer leasehold improvements, their leasehold interest in their leased premises, or their lease, or all or a combination of them.1 A landlord of a commercial tenant does not necessarily approve of having any of these items encumbered. In an ideal world, a landlord would never be concerned with the possibility that a tenant’s lender may one day remove from the leased premises a piece of HVAC equipment, some plumbing installations, or some other element of the infrastructure of leased premises. A landlord may be slightly less bothered by the possibility that its tenant's freestanding furniture or equipment might be removed from the leased premises by the tenant's unpaid lender (but it would certainly not be pleased by this experience). Moreover, in an ideal world a landlord would never find itself entangled with a lender who claimed a superior right to items of property that the landlord had itself seized, pursuant to its right to distrain for arrears of rent.

Timothy R. Dunn1 Senior Partner and Chair of the Insolvency Group Minden Gross LLP Tel. 416.369.4335 [email protected] February 24, 2015 I. Overview A great percentage of businesses will fail. For those of us who make our living dealing with the fallout from business failures, the reasons for the failure and the nuances of each business may vary but there is a commonality among the types of economic stakeholders and their rights to share in whatever assets remain of the failed business enterprise. "What will I get?" This is invariably one of the first questions I am asked by a client - whether I am acting for a business owner, secured creditor, landlord or supplier. In the case of the business owner, the answer is usually easy (and never what the owner wants to hear). With the other stakeholders, the answer will depend upon a number of factors, including the type of assets involved and the number and nature of the competing claimants. This brief paper will provide a fairly high level overview of the usual stakeholders one encounters following a business failure and a discussion of their respective rights and ranking in the hierarchy of claimants who find themselves competing to get a share of what assets remain in the carcass of the failed business. 1 Timothy R. Dunn is a Senior Partner and Chair of the Insolvency Group at Minden Gross LLP.
