Case update

Roman Catholic Episcopal Corporation of St. John's: the last contested item is worth $10,000

Four and a half years after the archdiocese filed, the churches are sold, the settlement with the Province is about to pay, and the corporation is ready to move from CCAA into bankruptcy. What is holding it there is a motion about the statues and vestments left behind — offered at $10,000, valued by one claimant's auctioneer at $34,780.

Each row is one filing's statement, copied as it reads and never computed. "Estimated" is the officer's forecast; "Under the plan" is the plan's or proposal's own term; "Final" is a declared or paid distribution; a row with no chip states no footing. A range is the two numbers stated; "of proven claims" is the document's own denominator.
