Creditors are urging a US court to lift an automatic stay.<\/p>\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n
Northern Mariana Islands.- Creditors of\u00a0Imperial Pacific International (IPI)<\/strong>\u00a0have asked the\u00a0US\u00a0District Court for the NMI to lift an automatic stay to allow court-appointed receiver Clear Management to sell more of the casino operator’s assets. The stay follows the operator’s bankruptcy\u00a0application.<\/p>\n\n\n\n Joshua Gray<\/strong> and USA Fanter Corp <\/strong>said Clear Management had spent $40,550 preparing for\u00a0a vehicle\u00a0auction<\/a>\u00a0but can’t advance because of the stay.\u00a0According to The Saipan Tribune, creditors\u00a0are receiving\u00a0emails from bidders asking for the return of money. The creditors argue that the personal property\u00a0is\u00a0not needed\u00a0for IPI’s reorganisation and that IPI does not own it. They also want the casino operator to compensate them for any loss in the value of the property caused by the delay.<\/p>\n\n\n\n In April, IPI filed for bankruptcy under\u00a0Chapter 11 of the Bankruptcy Code<\/a>. Creditors have accused the company of misusing the application. The\u00a0Commonwealth Casino Commission (CCC)\u00a0<\/strong>has opted to\u00a0delay its decision<\/a>\u00a0regarding\u00a0the status of\u00a0IPI\u2019s gaming licence to allow a clearer understanding of the legal implications of\u00a0the bankruptcy proceedings.\u00a0<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":" Creditors are urging a US court to lift an automatic stay.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":176,"featured_media":21187,"comment_status":"closed","ping_status":"closed","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"is_press_release":false,"is_interview":false,"is_opinion":false,"focusai_summary":"Creditors of Imperial Pacific International (IPI) are petitioning the US District Court for the NMI to lift an automatic stay, enabling court-appointed receiver Clear Management to proceed with asset sales following IPI's Chapter 11 bankruptcy filing.
