A Division I proposal is available only to consumer debtors with less than $75,000 in claims against them.

Division I Proposal

An alternative to bankruptcy, created by the Bankruptcy and Insolvency Act, whereby the debtor secures some time to reorganize his affairs and make a proposal for partial payment that will satisfy his creditors; if the creditors reject the proposal, the insolvent debtor is deemed to have made an assignment in bankruptcy from the day of the meeting of the creditors, and the normal bankruptcy procedures follow.

Consumer Debtors
