Old and New Chrysler File Contempt Joint Motion Against Rejected Dealers That Commenced State Actions

On August 13, 2009, Old and New Chrysler took the gloves off and filed a joint motion accusing 11 rejected dealers of violating the automatic stay by filing state actions or proceedings after the closing of the sale against New Chrysler. The targeted dealers include 8 from Wisconsin and one each from Arkansas, Ohio and Utah. The Motion seeks not only a cease and desist order but also the award of the attorneys fees incurred by both New and Old Chrysler in bringing motion and in defending the underlying actions and proceedings. A copy of the motion may be found here.
