FRAUDULENT TRANSFERS UNDER THE U.S. BANKRUPTCY CODE
The U.S. Bankruptcy Code (Title 11) has its own organic fraudulent transfer provisions, which are only and exclusively available to bankruptcy proceedings.
Bankruptcy Code Section 548 -- Fraudulent Transfers And Obligations
Bankruptcy Code Section 550 -- Liability of Transferee of Fraudulent Transfer
However, because the Bankruptcy Statute of Limitations for a Fraudulent Transfer is too short to be of much practical use (only two years per § 548(a)(1)), most Bankruptcy Trustees will instead use applicable state law via:
Bankruptcy Code Section 544 - Trustee as lien creditor and as successor to certain creditors and purchasers
