Court-ordered Restructuring, which in the United States' Bankruptcy Code, is known as "chapter 11 reorganisation" permits reorganization under the bankruptcy laws. In most instances the debtor remains in control of its business operations as a debtor in possession, and is subject to the oversight and jurisdiction of the court.

Não sei se o conceito existe nos EUA, mas não é um auxílio governamental para uma empresa em dificuldades. No caso da recuperação judicial, a empresa ajuiza um pedido de recuperação judicial e apresenta um plano de recuperação, que, uma vez aprovado pelo juiz, é submetido à aprovação dos credores reunidos em assembleia. Se os credores aprovam o plano, a empresa entra então em recuperação judicial e deve seguir o plano apresentado.

Alen, I would advise you to consider Martin's answer instead of mine.

Here is the definition of Recuperação Judicial

O que é recuperação judicial?
A recuperação judicial é uma medida legal destinada a evitar a falência, proporcionando ao empresário devedor a possibilidade de apresentar, em juízo, aos seus credores, formas para quitação do débito.

A reaffirmation agreement is a written contract entered voluntarily between a Chapter 7 debtor and a creditor. Here the debtor promises to pay all or a portion of the money that s/he owes to the creditor, regardless of the bankruptcy filing. By a reaffirmation agreement the debtor agrees to make payments throughout the course of the bankruptcy proceedings until complete satisfaction and accomplishment of all money or obligations owed. The purpose of filing a reaffirmation agreement is to allow a creditor keep with him/her the collateral or mortgaged property which would otherwise be subject to repossession. A reaffirmation agreement helps a debtor to waive the discharge of debt which would otherwise be discharged in the pending bankruptcy proceeding.
