In re E.I. du Pont de Nemours & Co.

In re E.I. du Pont de Nemours & Co. was a legal case where a bankruptcy court examined whether certain corporate subsidiaries could be included in Du Pont’s bankruptcy estate. The court focused on whether these subsidiaries were properly integrated into the parent company's financial and operational structure, which would make their assets and liabilities part of Du Pont's bankruptcy proceedings. Ultimately, the court decided that some subsidiaries were sufficiently interconnected to be included, impacting how assets were managed and distributed during the bankruptcy. The case helps clarify legal boundaries for consolidating corporate entities in bankruptcy cases.
