Broadband Telecom Wins Third Plan Exclusivity Extension Into 2027
On September 25, 2026, the bankruptcy court granted Broadband Telecom and six affiliated debtors a third extension of their exclusive periods to propose chapter 11 plans and solicit acceptances. The five debtors that filed first have until March 4, 2027, to file plans and May 3, 2027, to solicit acceptances. The two later filers have until May 13 and July 12, 2027, respectively. These are exclusivity deadlines, not plan-confirmation dates.
The extension follows the debtors' September 4 motion, which said they needed additional time to complete Rule 2004 examinations and review document productions to independently verify their books, records, and operations. The September order extends exclusivity; it does not determine what that investigation will show.
