    Unlike property transferred with actual intent to defraud, hinder or delay the debtor's creditors, property transferred as payment or security for a valid, although antecedent, debt is to be considered as part of the debtor's assets in determining the debtor's solvency at that time. 5 Collier on Bankruptcy, ¶547.03[5] at 547-32 (16th ed. 2013); see also, In re K & R Mining, Inc., 103 B.R. 136, 140 (Bankr.N.D.Ohio 1988)("[T]he debt that was to be extinguished by such transfer is also to be included in determining the debtor's liabilities."); In re Emergency Monitoring Technologies, Inc., 366 B.R. 476, 491 (Bankr.

To be an insider of the debtor, a person need not have "legal or absolute" control of the debtor, K R Mining, Inc. v. Keffler Constr. Co. (In re K R Mining, Inc.), 103 B.R. 136, 139 (Bankr. N.D. Ohio 1988), but "must exercise sufficient authority" to "dictate corporate policy and the disposition of corporate assets," Badger Freightways, 106 B.R. at 982 (internal quotation omitted).

  4. In re Riversideworld, Inc.

    366 B.R. 34 (Bankr. N.D. Iowa 2007)   Cited 14 times
    In RiversideWorld, the question was whether an entity called National City Capital Corporation was an insider of RiversideWorld, Inc.

    An insider is said to be an entity with a sufficiently close relationship to the debtor that its conduct is made subject to closer scrutiny than those dealing at arm's length with debtor.In re Controlled Power Corp. of Ohio, 351 B.R. 470, 475 (Bankr. N.D. Ohio 2006). A creditor not dealing at arm's length with debtor, and whose special relationship with debtor enables it to compel payment of its claim, has sufficient control over debtor to be deemed an insider (id. at 475, citing K R Mining, Inc. v. Keffler Construction Co. (In re K R Mining, Inc.), 103 B.R. 136 (Bankr. N.D. Ohio 1988)). Huron Capital Partners and Huron Fund, LP are statutory insiders of HOLDINGS and RiversideWorld, Inc. Beauregard and Demkowicz are statutory insiders of HOLDINGS and RiversideWorld, Inc.
