The latest filing seeks approval for the bankruptcy protection and relief to be applied to the updated schemes, including the latest and improved buyout terms.A court hearing on March 16th will consider the relief requested.The goal is to ensure no party can undermine the proposed buyout and so the process can be sped to conclusion, with the added protection of the US bankruptcy court and its protection.
