An Assignment for the Benefit of Creditors or “ABC” is a state court proceeding that is governed under Chapter 577 of Minnesota Statutes. The law provides for a voluntary surrender and sale of the assignor's assets under the supervision of a state court judge.
Assignment for the benefit of the creditors (ABC) (also known as general assignment for the benefit of the creditors) is a voluntary alternative to formal bankruptcy proceedings that transfers all of the assets from a debtor to a trust for liquidating and distributing its assets.
One of the main disadvantages to ABCs is that, unlike in a bankruptcy proceeding, there is no automatic stay in place. In most receivership proceedings, the court order appointing a receiver also contains some form of automatic stay that limits litigation against the liquidating company.
Assignment agreement serves as binding documents that outline the assignment's terms and conditions, including payment terms, timelines, performance expectations, and specific requirements. By reaching a consensus on these details, both parties can minimize potential conflicts and align their expectations.

Once verified, the third party, now termed the assignee, becomes the official owner of the debt and has the right to collect it.
Uniform Commercial Code (UCC) filings allow creditors to notify other creditors about a debtor's assets used as collateral for a secured transaction. UCC liens filed with Secretary of State offices act as a public notice by the "creditor" of the creditor's interest in the property.
The secured party has 20 days to either terminate the filing or send a termination statement to the debtor that the debtor can then file. If this does not happen within the 20-day time frame, the debtor may file a UCC-3 termination statement.
