A scheduled hearing yesterday on the challenge against the last ruling by bankruptcy judge to cancel the sale of the Revel to Florida developer Glen Straub has been cancelled by all parties.

It is believed everyone needs a rest after the merry go round that is the Revel Casino and hotel. Following the on and off sale of the disastrous story of the development that cost $2.4 billion to build only three years ago, which was to be sold to Straub for a knockdown  price of $82 million the judge Gloria Burns on Friday said she could not approve the sale at that price after it was originally to be sold to Straub for $95.4 million but then Revel offered it for less.

Now with ACR Energy threatening to shut down the power for the resort after it is still owed $20 million since the resort closed in September 2014, the difficulties of anyone wanting to buy it deepens.

How this total disaster of a story will be resolved is unclear, what is sure Straub or anyone else will have to offer the near $100 million it was originally supposed to be sold for before a deal will be granted.

Observers say that even at $100 million anyone would be getting a great deal given the cost it once was, even with paying the electric bill.
