Judge Laurie Selber Silverstein entered a final decree closing the Boy Scouts of America Chapter 11 case, Case No. 20-10343, and leaving Delaware BSA, LLC, Case No. 20-10342, as the remaining open docket for future filings tied to either reorganized debtor, abuse claims, and the Settlement Trust. The Final Decree directs the clerk to mark the BSA case closed, route future motions and notices to the Delaware BSA case, and keep the court’s jurisdiction over plan enforcement, claim disputes, the Settlement Trust, and the confirmation order intact.
The practical effect is administrative but case-defining: the reorganized BSA estate stops accruing future quarterly U.S. Trustee fees after March 13, any unpaid BSA-case fees are due within 21 days, and the BSA final report will be folded into a consolidated report when the remaining Delaware BSA case eventually closes. Claims against the reorganized debtors or the Settlement Trust are not released or impaired by the closure; they continue through the remaining case.
