Law360, New York (March 06, 2013, 6:25 PM ET) -- A New York bankruptcy judge on Wednesday signed off on commercial real estate services provider Grubb & Ellis Co.'s Chapter 11 liquidation plan almost a year after global brokerage BGC Partners Inc. closed its acquisition of most of Grubb & Ellis' assets.
U.S. Bankruptcy Judge Martin Glenn approved the plan at a quick, uncontested confirmation hearing Wednesday. Grubb & Ellis filed for bankruptcy in February 2012 as a result of operating losses and negative earnings over the past several years.
