As quoted in market news:
Patriot Coal, which filed for bankruptcy last year, was spun-off from Peabody Energy Corp five years ago and later acquired an Arch Coal business. On Thursday, Patriot filed a lawsuit against Peabody to ensure that Peabody “does not attempt to use Patriot’s bankruptcy to escape Peabody’s own healthcare obligations to certain retirees.”
