The #BoyScoutsOfAmerica filed for #bankruptcy in 2020 after spending >$150M to settle hundreds of #abuse lawsuits between 2017 & 2019, acc/to court records. In 2022, a federal bankruptcy court in Delaware approved the reorganization plan, clearing the way for the #BSA to reemerge & creating a fund to pay survivors.

Critics of such arrangements say courts are generally not authorized to block such lawsuits. Supporters say that without protections for third-party groups, major bankruptcy deals like the ones for #Purdue & the #BoyScouts would never take effect.
