Bill overview
The Consumer Protection and Corporate Accountability in Bankruptcy Act of 2026 aims to increase accountability in corporate bankruptcies. It allows for the dismissal of bankruptcy cases if they are objectively futile or filed in bad faith, with specific criteria outlined for determining bad faith, such as tactical litigation advantages or attempts to cap liability. The bill also strengthens protections against claims from non-debtor entities related to product liability and environmental damage. Additionally, it modifies the automatic stay to prevent orders that override protections for certain claims, and makes technical amendments to existing bankruptcy code sections.
