No idea, and not entirely sure why it matters. If your goal is to sell an asset and maximize proceeds, it's a known and unsurprising strategy, particularly since it gives higher returns when there are few bidders.

I think it has quite a chance of mattering. There's two choices here: the judge is incomptetent/compromised, or there's a reason this makes sense within the bankruptcy context. I want to explore the latter first before I make any judgements.
