An insurer on Monday lost its fight to dismiss the bankruptcy of Imerys Talc America Inc., which sought protection from creditors three years ago.
The Manchester, N.H.-based RiverStone insurers said Imerys sold all of its mining operations in early 2021, leaving the company with virtually no business. The insurance company said Imerys has no valid reorganization prospects and that its bankruptcy should be thrown out for bad faith.
