Submitted by webadmin on

Bankruptcy Judge Kevin Gross yesterday cleared the way for creditors to vote on the chapter 11 plan that sets out the distribution scheme for cash and stock raised in the sale of failed hybrid auto maker Fisker Automotive Inc., the Wall Street Journal reported today. Judge Gross signed off on voting materials, allowing balloting to begin on the chapter 11 payout plan for the old Fisker, the remnant of the operating company that was sold for $149.2 million to China's Wanxiang Group. Fisker, its unsecured creditors and the company's secured lender, a company connected to Hong Kong billionaire Richard Li, settled their differences over dividing the sale proceeds in advance of yesterday’s hearing in bankruptcy court.
