said by Cloud Strife:What some of you are forgetting is that Adelphia shareholders or creditors (I can't remember which one) is seeking to overturn the ruling of selling it to TW/Comcast. IF that is the case then will have Adelphia still.
It was the creditors and was based on the Supreme court decision against Arthur Anderson LLC, which was overturned (in that case), but not applicable to this one; 'http://www.post-gazette.com/pg/05165/521124.stm Here's a piece out of the article:
