Conn. Senators call for answers from Remington CEO following bankruptcy filing

Following the announcement of Bushmaster Remington’s second bankruptcy filing in two years, Senators Chris Murphy and Richard Blumenthal called on the firearm manufacture to ensure that the Sandy Hook lawsuit can continue regardless of their bankruptcy proceedings.  The pair also asked Remington's CEO to make sure that no sale of the company happens unless they can ensure they can pay out monetary damages.  They say Remington’s bankruptcy filing has, for the moment, halted progress in the families path to justice.  Murphy says Remington’s decision to omit any mention of these Sandy Hook families or their claims from both the initial bankruptcy filings and its listing of the Top 40 Unsecured Creditors raises concerns about the potential use of the bankruptcy process to selectively shed its liability to these families while paying off other similarly situated creditors.
