Eagle1993 2160 Posted December 9, 2021 Share Posted December 9, 2021 There is a screenshot in the docket above where an individual submitted a ballot to K.R. that they selected Reject and the receipt from K.R. states Approve. If true ... wow. 1 Link to post Share on other sites

As to point (3), perhaps the TCC has information on the Survivor Working Group from the BSA and Coalition? For example, has the group met?

The Judge booted a mediator this past week. I wouldn't want to be in her sights for breaking mediation confidentiality! 1 1 Link to post Share on other sites
MYCVAStory 687 Posted December 10, 2021 Share Posted December 10, 2021 One piece of news from the TCC Town Hall is that the Local Council "Dashboards" were submitted with the expert reports and are expected to be posted on the TCC website by Tuesday. 3 Link to post Share on other sites
RememberSchiff 3671 Posted December 10, 2021 Share Posted December 10, 2021 (edited) Big winners in the Boy Scouts bankruptcy? Attorneys, who could walk away with $1 billion. https://money.yahoo.com/big-winners-boy-scouts-bankruptcy-100024259.html "Boy Scouts of America estimates the bill for their professionals, plus those hired by the official creditors’ committees, could be more than $205 million by the end of the year. That’s approaching the amount Boy Scouts said it would contribute to a trust for survivors: $219 million."

skeptic 993 Posted December 10, 2021 Share Posted December 10, 2021 So, at least somebody in the media thought to take note of the Elephant.😬 Link to post Share on other sites
Eagle1993 2160 Posted December 10, 2021 Share Posted December 10, 2021 Most of these costs would have been avoided if BSA did a national bankruptcy only. Including COs & LCs made it incredibly complex and unique. Add in 84,000 claimants and the process grinds. I think a big solution is eliminating the ability to include non debtors under bankruptcy. Unfortunately, the horse has left the barn here. 3 Link to post Share on other sites

Including COs & LCs made it incredibly complex and unique. Add in 84,000 claimants and the process grinds. To say this has become obscene strains the word’s ability to convey its meaning. From the Latin it is, effectively, “abominable.” The theory is our word comes from the combination of “in front of” and “filth.” To top it off, it turns out my attorney read the article, too. He just emailed me. Wants to up the baseline hourly to $8 and demands I agree to lift the cap. I can’t win. There was an e-signature button, but I was afraid to press it for fear if I did my already-cast ballot would turn to a “Yes” vote. Life is goofy. And scary. And expensive.

MYCVAStory 687 Posted December 10, 2021 Share Posted December 10, 2021 Worth remembering, the TCC's lead firm agreed AFTER being retained to give back 10% of its fees to a Survivor's trust. It's something, and not matched by the professionals from any other group. I know, I too wish I had a different career choice at this point but still.... Link to post Share on other sites
