The U.S. Bankruptcy Court in Manhattan is losing two veteran judges to retirement next year.

Judge James Peck, who presided over the historic Lehman Brothers Chapter 11, will retire at the end of next month, and Kodak Judge Allan L. Gropper will step down next fall, according to a press release issued by the bankruptcy court clerk for the Southern District of New York.

“They will be missed,” said Chief Bankruptcy Judge Cecelia G. Morris in the release. “Their influence will continue through their well-reasoned written opinions.”
