Law360, New York (January 22, 2013, 11:03 PM ET) -- The dissolution trustee for bankrupt title insurer LandAmerica Financial Group sought approval Tuesday for a $57.5 million asset sale and merger agreement between LFG and Arizona-based Western Alliance Bank in which two LFG units will be rolled into each other before being sold.
In a motion filed in Virginia federal court, the trustee sought approval for the deal, in which Phoenix-based Western Alliance Bancorp unit Western Alliance Bank would acquire LFG unit Centennial Bank after Centennial absorbs Orange County Bancorp, another LFG unit.
