Bankruptcy judge will rule on foundation money

YOUNGSTOWN — The fate of more than $12 million in unrestricted donations to charitable foundations that supported Northside Medical Center here and Trumbull Memorial Hospital in Warren is now in the hands of a federal bankruptcy judge.

After a two-hour hearing today, U.S. Bankruptcy Judge Kay Woods said she’d take the matter under advisement and rule on it soon.

Forum Health’s unsecured creditors are hoping to take the money from Western Reserve Health Foundation, which supported Forum Health Northside, and the Trumbull Memorial Hospital Foundation, which supported Forum’s TMH in Warren.
