In the Matter of H.L.S. Energy Co., Inc., Debtor. State of Texas v. John Patrick Lowe, Trustee

How courts have described this case

Verbatim parenthetical descriptions written by other courts when citing this decision. Ranked by citation-network relevance.

• “Because the plugging requirement here accrued post-petition, we need not reach the question whether post-petition expenses for the remediation of pre-petition environmental liabilities would likewise constitute an administrative expense.”
• “[T]he trustee here was obligated to plug the wells. . . . [T]he instant trustee's failure to plug the wells resulted in the state's action in plugging them, an action for which the bankrupt estate was obligated to pay. This, too, must be given priority.”
