Chapter 11 announced - Part 12 - District Court
MYCVAStory replied to Eagle1993's topic in Issues & Politics
An administrator to manage the claims process has been designated. It is Ms. Randi Ilyse Roth. A full description is in Docket 10948 https://casedocs.omniagentsolutions.com/cmsvol2/pub_47373/e6b860d5-ea87-4d08-9283-894100d71c06_10948.pdf. She'll be responsible for managing the process to include hiring staff and sexual abuse experts, setting up the claim intake process, etc. Interestingly, she was the claims facilitator in US V. Fata. That case gives Survivors a bit of an indication of how the process will look, forms required and website if a Survivor's Trust is funded. The legacy we -

If you have a claim and pass away it becomes the "property" of your estate. That, and questions about documenting things NOW are reasons to lawyer up if you have any concerns. It IS an issue for many. I seem to remember hearing at some point that something on the order of 10,000 claims were from Survivors over 70, with 2,000 from those over 80. No, I'm not a lawyer so remember when you get free legal advice you get what you pay for đ -

So true. I've been struck at the number of times parties have suggested that Survivors are growing impatient when that isn't the case. Frustrated? Absolutely. But if you take a Survivor who has waited decades for some sort of resolution, and assume that all of a sudden their patience is going to evaporate, you're going to make a big mistake. Survivors want this over but realize that for many this might be their best shot. Don't ignore their abuse OR the resolve that's been forged over the decades. -

While the TCC didn't object, it didn't support reimbursement either, and made clear that the Coalition and Pfau/Zalkin's reimbursement requests were not their fight pro or con. From the docket: https://casedocs.omniagentsolutions.com/cmsvol2/pub_47373/4e0ca3c3-b1e5-4bc3-b4f4-0407a4d599ca_10861.pdf "However, in an attempt to emphasize their individual roles in this case to support the payment of their substantial contribution claims, the Coalition and, to a lesser extent, Pfau/Zalkin, have minimized (and at times have been outright dismissive of) the integral role that the TCC played in -

I suppose the cynic in me would say this is why you hire a bankruptcy attorney to represent you in bankruptcy court. He isn't one so his post isn't entirely correct. All isssues aren't being addressed de novo. The de novo portion of the procedure underway isn't unusual and the District Court will also review some things under an "abuse of discretion" standard which is harder to overrule. So, strict bankruptcy code issues may be reviewed de novo while more complicated issues that aren't typical may get de novo treatment. This is all wise because if this heads to further appeal, and that t -

The DOJ missed the deadline to appeal. It's "certain insurers" (Non-Settling ones), Lujan and Dumas clients appealing. They will make the arguments they made previously, and specifically argue that the Judge applied bankruptcy code incorrectly. -

Yep. The wheels of bankruptcy grind on, slowly. The key for Survivors is to get this "effective enough" so that some funding can roll into the trust so it starts to get operational. The Trustee and named claims administrators need to hire their own staffs, or at least get them in the on-deck circle, and start the work on procedures so that when, fingers crossed, there are no more non-settling insurer appeals the Trust can hit the ground running. But yeah.....6-18 months. I remember hearing that 2,200 claims were from people over 80. I can't help but wonder how many won't be with us by th -

Yes. The CRITICAL day is when the plan goes "Effective"; and the next step to that happening is District approval. Nothing happens until then. If not, then parties like the LCs would lose the injunction that is a part of the plan. Unfortunately, lots of "BSA emerges from Bankruptcy" headlines are giving the wrong impression. -

Briefly..... Appeals must be filed within 14 days. This is basically an "I appeal" placeholder filed. Parties discuss a suggested appeals process. Documents, arguments, briefs, etc submissions are agreed upon. Or not. Stipulation filed with the District Court regarding the appeals process for its agreement. It can do its own thing as well. Also District Court is MUCH different than Bankruptcy Cort. IF there is testimony don't expect it to be on Zoom. But, you can travel to beautiful Wilmington to see it! Distrct Court places dates on the docket. Right now it's all a -

Yeah....the cringy moment of the day was when one of the attorneys lightheartedly mentioned to the Judge that the proceeding's complexity and reminder of past hearings might be "TRIGGERING" to her. UH, how about if we dont joke about that. Some just don't get it. -
