What is the "claw back" period in Chapter 11 bankruptcy as regards financial distribution to investors?

Court: Middle District of Florida. Need to know the period of time in which a court-appointed receiver can "claw back" funds received by investor victims in a ponzi scheme. (Assume that the creditor cannot claim distributions in normal course of business.) Many thanks!

In Florida, the look back period for a fraudulent transfer is four years. Although, your comments regarding "normal course of business" sounds ike you are talking about a preferential transfer, a creature of bankruptcy law, not state law, which is what applies to a court-appointed receiver. You should contact an attorney for details.
