The ACandS Asbestos Settlement Trust was organized to process, liquidate, and pay all valid asbestos personal injury claims for which ACandS has legal responsibility. The Trust was created in 2008 as a result of the confirmation of the ACandS Chapter 11 Joint Plan of Reorganization (the “Plan”). The purpose of the Trust is to provide fair, equitable and substantially similar treatment for all personal injury Trust claims that may presently exist or may arise in the future in substantially the same manner.
