$40 Million Distribution March 1
February 8 the Trustee announced that $40 million will be coming out to us "on or about March 1st." This amounts to $3.44 per Class A Interest to folks who were holders of that class as of February 22nd 2022.

Progress
The Woodbridge ponzi is starting (at least) to unwind. The SEC is more or less out at this point as well as the Chapter 11 bankruptcy court; the real estate crew is now driving this rehabilitation trust effort.

On October 26, 2018, the Bankruptcy Court entered an order confirming the Woodbridge Chapter 11 plan of liquidation.
