Found it!

In re Golden Books Family Entertainment, Inc., 269 B.R. 311 (Nov. 8, 2001).

Okay, so it was almost 2 years ago....

I can e-mail you the full news report if you like.

Regards.

: : How can I make the research paper I have to write for my Bankruptcy class have something to do with Intellectual Property?

: : any ideas????

: Yes, about a year ago (maybe more, maybe less), there was a case in which a license which was non-assignable (by its own language) was nonetheless assigned during bankruptcy (the license was an important asset of the bankrupt company). The assignment was upheld. It was big news a while back.

: I don't practice that type of law, so I don't have the name/citation handy. I can look it up (or maybe that's enough information to search for it yourself??). If I recall correctly, it wasn't a particularly authoritative court (maybe a district court or a non-Supreme state court). It was still quite controversial for people doing licensing work.

: I also don't know whether other courts have followed it or whether anyone has looked into the likelihood that the case will be followed. But that would be a very interesting article. I'd love to see it when it's done.

: I hope that helps.

: Regards.
