The Federal Deposit Insurance Corp.’s new power to take over and liquidate nonbank companies whose failure would jeopardize the financial system is intended as a “third way” between bankruptcy and bailout. But the prospect of a new regime for dissolving megacompanies — one with almost no judicial oversight and in which creditors’ rights are few — is sending shockwaves through the bankruptcy bar. The FDIC is tackling nearly 40 major rulemakings to flesh out the details of the law, and Wall Street is waiting anxiously.

Remember the TV reality show “Making the Band,” which spawned the short-lived boy band O-Town? The show’s revenue is at the center of a $60 million suit pitting the bankruptcy estate of a film production company once run by Lou Pearlman — the infamous boy band manager now in prison for orchestrating a $300 million Ponzi scheme — against Viacom, MTV and the Sean “Diddy” Combs-controlled companies Bad Boy Films and Bad Boy Records. A Florida federal judge has ruled the suit can go forward.

Judge John Peterson notes that California can’t get restitution from former CalPERS official Alfred Villalobos, whom it accuses of influence-peddling, without the Bankruptcy Court’s permission. A U.S. Bankruptcy Court judge was skeptical of the California attorney general’s efforts Tuesday to keep on track a civil fraud lawsuit against Alfred J.R. Villalobos, a key go-between in arranging investment deals for state public pension fund money.
