Although the foundations are linked to Forum, the judge ruled that they are separate non-profits, and therefore cannot fund Forum’s payments to unsecured creditors in its Chapter 11 bankruptcy.
The ruling also dismissed the foundations’ bankruptcy cases, filed to protect their corporate and private donations.
Trumbull Memorial foundation has about $8.1 million in unrestricted funds and Western Reserve foundation has about $4.3 million.
