General Information:
On February 16 and 17, 2011, each of the thirty-three debtors filed voluntary petitions for relief under Chapter 11 of the United States Bankruptcy Code (the "Bankruptcy Code). The cases are jointly administered under Case No. 11-06098 (collectively, the "Bankruptcy Cases") and are pending before the Honorable Judge Eugene R. Wedoff in the United States Bankruptcy Court for the Northern District of Illinois, Eastern Division.
On May 1, 2012, the substantively consolidated Chapter 11 cases administered under Case No. 11-06098 were converted to a single consolidated Chapter 7 case administered under Case No. 11-06098.
Pursuant to the Bankruptcy Code (specifically including, but not limited to, 11 U.S.C. § 362), a debtor is afforded certain protection against its creditors; the Bankruptcy Code prohibits creditors from taking certain actions related to debts that may have been owing prior to the commencement of the Bankruptcy Cases. If you believe that you might be a creditor of the Debtor based upon debts arising prior to February 16, 2011 and you are considering taking action based upon your status as a creditor, you may wish to seek legal advice. The staff of the Clerk of the Bankruptcy Court and the staff of Kurtzman Carson Consultants LLC are not permitted to give legal advice.
