In Re A.H. Robins Company, Incorporated

Court of Appeals for the Fourth Circuit

1Opinion of the Court

DONALD RUSSELL, Circuit Judge:

This is a consolidated appeal by some eighty-odd Robins’ Chapter 11 1 claimants from the disallowance of their claims by the District Court sitting in Bankruptcy. The disallowance was for failure of the appellants to file a timely questionnaire which was, in the opinion of the District Court, an essential part of their proofs of claims. We affirm, but without prejudice to the right of appellants to file petitions for reconsideration, under the standards established in Rule 60(b), Fed.R.Civ.P.
