United States Third Circuit

In an appeal from the bankruptcy court's order confirming newspaper-debtor's Chapter 11 plan of reorganization the district court's dismissal as equitably moot, is: 1) affirmed as to mootness; but 2) reversed and remanded with respect to the Trustees who seek disgorgement from other creditors of $30 million that they believe they are entitled to receive, where this relief would neither jeopardize the $7.5 billion plan of reorganization nor harm third parties who have justifiably relied on plan confirmation.
