According to reports, United States bankruptcy judge Allan Gropper has agreed to the company’s plans which suggests that it should be back in trading in about two weeks and the company now intends to specialise in printing.

Kodak’s legal representative, Andrew Dietderich, said that the renewed company is very different from the one in popular imagination and from the one that filed for bankruptcy.
