> The economic outlook in the natural resource and agricultural industries has recently taken a hit with a slump in commodity prices. Major national and international oil and gas and coal companies have filed for bankruptcy protection, which has resulted in a ripple effect impacting local service companies and their employees, landowners and mineral rights holders, among a variety of many others living and doing business in our region.  Low agricultural commodity prices have also had an impact on local farmers and ranchers.  Due to the tumultuous economic environment the region is presently facing, the 2016 Montana State Bar Bankruptcy Section Annual Seminar will focus on the very issues that bankruptcy practitioners will face today in their practices and provide helpful information and tips to assist with the navigation of these issues affecting the region.
