In a recent decision from the United States Bankruptcy Court of the Southern District of New York by Judge Martin Glenn in theIn re Borders Group, Inc. case, Jefferies was awarded a "Liquidation Fee" even though it was not involved in the actual liquidation of Borders Group, Inc. (the "Debtors" or "Borders"), and was unsuccessful in procuring a going-concern sale for the Borders business. As a result, approximately 400 stores were sold in September of 2011.
