In their Wills, Estates and Surrogate's Practice feature, Peter C. Valente and Susan P.

MacGregor Strauss.
Standing to Bring Claims Related to Loan Assignments	Top
In their Commercial Division Update, George Bundy Smith and Thomas J. Hall, partners with Chadbourne & Parke, analyze a recent ruling holding that language assigning "all rights and interests" in a loan can transfer to the assignee the right to bring both contract and tort claims, particularly where the assignment assigned claims "related to" the loan documents.

Outside Counsel: Spousal Support Following Dismissal of a DRL §236B(2)(a) Action	Top
Elliott Scheinberg, a matrimonial appellate attorney, writes: An anticlimactic issue gnaws through the Domestic Relations Law: whether the Supreme Court is constrained to grant indefinite spousal support under Family Court Act §442 when a §236B(2)(a) action is dismissed, or may it also consider finite spousal support. While logic dictates that this seemingly silly question should not even exist as a question, much less rise to the level of an issue worthy of a column, the answer is unanticipatedly complex as the case law is inconsistent even in the same Department.
