Come on folks...
What matters, IMO, is that the Judge 'Ordered"-- to attempt mediation settlement, then litigation of the 8 counts and if that drags on too long he has retained the Court right to push it's decision thru Chapter 7.
Incentive for DMRJ/PP et al is to settle to not have a trial/other litigation/criminal discoveries, etc.
Incentive for EC/Common shareholders is not to let it go to Chapter 7, get as fair a settlement as possible, etc...JMHFO...
