By way of update to the Capsule International Holdings preference action filings (see original post here), the Official Committee of Unsecured Creditors (the “Committee”) recently filed a Motion for Authority to Settle Classes of Preference Claim Controversies Pursuant to Bankruptcy Rule 9019(b) and to Modify Compromise Procedures (the “Motion”). For a copy of the Motion, click here.

Per the motion, the Committee has filed approximately 80 claims, seeking the recovering of approximately $21 million for the Debtors’ estate.
