Collecting judgments
The Wall Street Journal reported the plight of disgraced Richard Scrushy. He is getting out of jail earlier than expected following a 2006 bribery conviction, but the founder of HealthSouth Corp. won't be free of creditors. A $2.88 billion civil judgment in 2009 against Mr. Scrushy for fraud at the rehabilitation chain, where he served as chairman and chief executive, will continue to loom over him for many years after he is released to a Texas halfway house in the coming weeks. Plaintiffs have collected about $25 million from Mr. Scrushy.
