So what's the correct way for the bankruptcy court

This below is referring to "executory contracts," which by definition
is not related.  Kirkland & Ellis law firm could address this matter

SEE: III. Assignment of Intellectual Property Licenses in Bankruptcy
Proceedings
================================================

Bankruptcy law is clear that many executory contracts can be assumed
and assigned by a debtor without the consent of the nondebtor party
(e.g., equipment leases, real property leases, a wide variety of
customer, dealer and other agreements) even if the agreement expressly
prohibits assignment or is silent on the issue of assignment.

Less clear is whether executory contracts involving the licensing of
intellectual property (e.g., patent, copyright, trademark, software,
knowhow) that either expressly prohibit assignment or are silent on
the issue can be assumed or assumed and assigned by a debtor without
first obtaining the consent of the non debtor party
