iQUESTION PRESENTEDIn 1986, the U.S. Bankruptcy Court for theSouthern District of New York (Lifland, J.) confirmeda landmark plan of reorganization for JohnsManville Corporation that channeled hundreds ofthousands of asbestos-related personal injury claimsinto a special trust fund for the benefit of injuredworkers and their families. The linchpin of thisreorganization was the contribution of hundreds ofmillions of dollars by Petitioners and other insurersinto a trust for payment of asbestos claims inexchange for protection from future lawsuits againstthe insurers, all of which was intended to providePetitioners with full and final protection from suitsrelating to, arising from or in connection withPetitioners’ insurance relationship with Manville.The U.S. Court of Appeals for the Second Circuitaffirmed the Manville confirmation order in full ondirect review in 1988.The U.S. Congress subsequently ratified theManville confirmation order (see 11 U.S.C. § 524(h))and used it as a model for Section 524(g) of theBankruptcy Code. In the decades following the entryof the final judgment affirming the Manville plan ofreorganization, and in reliance on the protectionsenacted by Congress, tens of billions of dollars havebeen paid into “524(g) trusts” for the benefit ofhundreds of thousands of asbestos claimants aroundthe country. In 2002, Petitioners sought to enforcethe Manville court’s orders when certain asbestosclaimants tried to evade the confirmation order bysuing Travelers directly in so-called “direct actions.”The bankruptcy court that fashioned the Manvilleplan of reorganization enjoined these suits, holding

iithat they were proscribed by the 1986 confirmationorder. The district court affirmed the bankruptcycourt’s decision, but in February 2008, more than twodecades after the original orders became final, adifferent panel of the Second Circuit held that thebankruptcy court lacked authority in 1986 to enter aconfirmation order that extended beyond the “res” ofthe debtor’s estate, which it defined as insurancepolicy proceeds.The question presented, therefore, is:Whether the court of appeals erred incategorically holding that bankruptcy courts do nothave jurisdiction to enter confirmation orders thatextend beyond the “res” of a debtor’s estate, despitethis Court’s ruling that “[t]he Framers would haveunderstood that laws ‘on the subject of Bankruptcies’included laws providing, in certain limited respects,for more than simple adjudications of rights in theres,” Central Virginia Community College v. Katz,546 U.S. 356, 370 (2006), and whether the court ofappeals compounded this error by:(a)failing to apply as written a finalconfirmation order and the federal statute (11 U.S.C.§§ 524(g) & (h)) codifying that order, which has beenthe cornerstone of nearly all asbestos-relatedbankruptcies since the statute’s enactment;(b)failing to give effect to the SupremacyClause and holdings of this Court that federalbankruptcy relief cannot be overridden by rightsalleged to have been created under state law; and(c)failing to enforce on collateral reviewthe same final bankruptcy confirmation order that itpreviously affirmed in full twenty-one years ago.
