A Vermont Petition for Recognition of Foreign Proceeding is a document filed with the Vermont Supreme Court that requests recognition of a foreign proceeding in a different jurisdiction. It is used when a debtor’s assets are located in multiple jurisdictions and a foreign court has been given jurisdiction over the debtor’s assets. This petition is typically filed by a foreign representative of the debtor and must be accompanied by a certified copy of the foreign proceeding’s order. There are two types of Vermont Petition for Recognition of Foreign Proceeding: recognition of a foreign main proceeding and recognition of a foreign nonmain proceeding. A recognition of a foreign main proceeding is used when a debtor is subject to a foreign main proceeding and the petition requests that the foreign main proceeding be recognized by the Vermont Supreme Court. A recognition of a foreign nonmain proceeding is used when the debtor is subject to a foreign nonmain proceeding and the petition requests that the foreign nonmain proceeding be recognized by the Vermont Supreme Court.
