u can sell it. u can take a loss. the commission will be high relative to the money u get for the sale and low compared to the tax loss. it is unlikely the stock will ever be worth a whole lot, but depending on litigation, etc. it may go up a lot percentagewise from current levels. $500 for my advice or as a christmas present would be much appreciated. fact u lost money in the stock is irrelevant to my fee. but i do feel your pain.

you don't need to actually sell. I have been involved in 2 bankrupted companies a few years back and never sold the shares. Just have to tell your CPA they are worthless and they will take care of it. You can tell your CPA and they can recorded as "zero" and collect your loss without actually having to sell. Even if you don't use a CPA, you can record the sale date as "today" and write down the proceed as "zero" with a footnote that the company is dead. No need to actually sell anything and waste paying any commissions when there is no need.
