Law360, New York (June 10, 2009, 12:00 AM ET) -- The sale of Chrysler LLC's principal assets to Italian car maker Fiat SpA was completed Wednesday after the U.S. Supreme Court refused to hear a legal challenge to the alliance, closing one of the last remaining chapters in the U.S. auto giant's 42-day bankruptcy stint.
The company to emerge from Chapter 11 under the new global alliance is Chrysler Group LLC, which exits with $6 billion in government financing and emerges unshackled from debt, labor costs and hundreds of poor-performing dealerships.
