Recent decisions of the United States District Court for the Southern District of New York suggest a significant departure from the previously widely understood meaning of Section 316(b) of the Trust Indenture Act that has prevailed among practitioners for decades. Chadbourne and 27 other law firms have published a white paper with general principles that can guide lawyers in giving legal opinions in restructurings in light of complications and uncertainties arising from these recent cases. Questions regarding the white paper can be directed to Marian Baldwin.

The European Court of Human Rights (ECtHR or the Court) recently ruled in Verein KlimaSeniorinnen Schweiz & Ors v. Switzerland (Application No. 53600/20) that Switzerland had breached the European Convention of Human Rights (the Convention) by not taking sufficient action against climate change. In particular, it found a breach of the right to respect for private and family life contained in Article 8 of the Convention, based on Switzerland’s failure to mitigate the impact of climate change on the lives, health, well-being and quality of life of its citizens. It also ruled that Switzerland had breached the right to a fair trial in terms of Article 6, in that the domestic courts failed to examine the merits of the applicants’ complaints, including the scientific evidence. In this article we consider the key features of this landmark judgment, which has wide ramifications for Member States of the Convention.
