What does that mean? Did the judge just rule negatively?

Zenith Elec Says Bankruptcy Court To Clear
Reorg Plan

GLENVIEW, Ill. -- Zenith Electronics Corp. (ZETHQ) said its
prepackaged reorganization plan will be approved by the U.S. Bankruptcy
Court but will be subject to some technical modifications.

In a press release Wednesday, the consumer electronics company said the
modifications "apply to releases in favor of third parties," and don't affect
any distributions to creditors or other provisions of the plan.

Zenith also said it expects to emerge from Chapter 11 shortly.

As reported, Zenith's Chapter 11 petition, filed Aug. 23, listed $311
million in assets and $732 million in liabilities.

Under the company's plan, reported Sept. 29, all outstanding stock will be
canceled, and stockholders, including LG Electronics Inc. - Zenith's
majority shareholder and a major creditor in the case - will receive nothing
for their existing equity stakes. LGE and its affiliates acquired a controlling
interest in Zenith shares in Nov. 1995.

I see something of a contradiction here. I thought our concern has been with a massive fraud and what this may mean in the future when a company gets controlling interest over another. So then a judge rules perhaps poorly on a reorganization plan and I hear "the end". If there really has been such gross fraud, then it is really the beginning and I know what will happen. Formal charges will be filed, evidence will be presented, and someday I will read of bodies swinging and heads rolling. If not, then that means a different fraud has been perpetrated. I hope that what I have read here has not just been efforts by someone to protect his investment in Zenith.

I am an investor, not a gambler. In today's market what an investor loses on any one company is easily made up elsewhere. I am concerned with the truth and someday I will know what it is.
