Subject: Waiting Period for HSR filings in Bankruptcy

Hi Mike - I wanted to confirm the position of the PNO with respect to the length of the waiting period for HSR transactions in a bankruptcy context. Interpretation 280 indicates a 10 day waiting period, however, I have been told that Section 363 of the Bankruptcy Code now reflects a 15 day waiting period. Thanks

About Informal Interpretations

Informal interpretations provide guidance from previous staff interpretations on the applicability of the HSR rules to specific fact situations. You should not rely on them as a substitute for reading the Act and the Rules themselves. These materials do not, and are not intended to, constitute legal advice.
