  • The trustee is working on the rehabilitation plan, according to a notice published Thursday. But "matters that require closer examination" made it "necessary to extend the submission deadline."
  • The deadline has been extended multiple times, with the most recent extensions happening in November 2018, April 2019 and this past March.
  • Now the deadline is set for Dec. 15.
  • In a status report filed Oct. 7, the trustee wrote, "It should be noted that the deadline may be further extended."
