This section amends the Bankruptcy Code to restrict the use, sale, or lease of genetic information (as defined in the Genetic Information Nondiscrimination Act of 2008, 42 U.S.C. 2000ff) in bankruptcy cases and to require its deletion when applicable. Specifically, it (1) adds genetic information to the definition of unexpired lease of personal property in 11 U.S.C. §101(41A)(A); (2) in §363(b)(1)(B), prohibits approval of any sale or lease containing genetic information unless all affected persons (including non-parties) affirmatively consent in writing after case commencement, and adds subsection (q) requiring actual prior written notice to each affected person for any such use, sale, or lease to be final and valid; and (3) in §1107, adds subsection (c) directing a trustee or debtor in possession to delete any estate genetic information not subject to a §363 disposition, using court-prescribed methods (which may include National Institute of Standards and Technology Special Publication 800-88 guidelines or successor). The amendments apply to cases pending or commenced/reopened on or after the date of enactment.
