Date

Summary

Doc 574, an order entered September 27, 2024 by U.S. Bankruptcy Judge Brendan L. Shannon in the jointly administered Chapter 11 cases of Vyaire Medical, Inc., et al., Case No. 24-11217 (BLS), in the U.S. Bankruptcy Court for the District of Delaware, on the motion at Docket No. 522. The order grants the debtors' motion to extend the time within which they must assume or reject unexpired leases of nonresidential real property under section 365(d)(4) of the Bankruptcy Code; the motion, as recited, sought an extension to January 6, 2025. It preserves the debtors' right to seek further extensions and states that nothing in it is an admission as to any claim or lien or an authorization to assume or reject any lease. The three-page order is immediately effective notwithstanding Bankruptcy Rule 6004(h), and the court retains jurisdiction over its implementation.
