A case-outcome article by the bankruptcy law firm Pachulski Stang Ziehl and Jones, counsel involved in the Diocese of Wilmington Chapter 11 case, describing U.S. Bankruptcy Judge Christopher Sontchi's confirmation of the diocese's reorganization plan, its 26 September 2011 effective date, and a settlement trust that grew to roughly 105 million dollars for about 150 survivors once a codefendant religious order's own contribution was added to the diocese's 77.5 million dollars.

Facts
Assessment
Reliability Tier
2
Reliability tier 2: a bankruptcy practice's own case summary naming the confirming judge, the confirmation and effective dates and the final trust total, professionally accountable for accuracy though not an independent newsroom, corroborated by CBS News's contemporaneous coverage of the underlying mediated settlement.
Notes
Tier 2: the source for the confirmation date, the plan's effective date and the final trust total including the religious order's contribution, cross checked against CBS News's report on the original mediated figure.
