Financial Oversight & Management Bd. For Puerto Rico v. Cooperativa de Ahorro y Credito, No. 22-1079 (1st Cir. 2022)
Annotate this Case
The First Circuit dismissed certain Credit Unions' challenge to the district court's rejection of their objections to the Modified Eighth Amended Title III Joint Plan of Adjustment of the Commonwealth of Puerto Rico, the Employees Retirement System of the Government of the Commonwealth of Puerto Rico, and the Puerto Rico Public Buildings Authority (the confirmation order) and the findings of fact and conclusions of law in connection with the confirmation order (the FF/CL), holding that dismissal was warranted.
The final debt restructuring plan at issue in this appeal was the product of evolving plans about how to resolve the initial petition for debt restructuring filed by Puerto Rico's Financial Oversight and Management Board on behalf of the Commonwealth and several of its agencies and instrumentalities pursuant to Title III of the Puerto Rico Oversight, Management, and Stability Act. Six Credit Unions appealed to challenge the confirmation order and FF/CL. The First Circuit dismissed the Credit Unions' challenges, holding that because the Court has now affirmed the dismissal of the Credit Union' adversary claims, the appeal from the confirmation order and the FF/CL was moot.
