Former Standard Register gets new restructuring officer

The U.S. Bankruptcy Court for the District of Delaware has approved a change of restructuring officers at the former Standard Register Co., according to a filing Wednesday with the Securities and Exchange Commission.

On Tuesday, the federal bankruptcy court approved the resignation of Kevin Carmody as chief restructuring officer of SRC Liquidation Co., formerly Dayton-based Standard Register.

The court also approved the appointment of Landen Williams as SRC Liquidation’s replacement chief restructuring officer and treasurer. Williams is a partner at WilliamsMarston LLC, a firm specializing in accounting consulting and interim management.

Carmody is a partner in McKinsey Recovery & Transformation Services, one of three financial advisory firms the former Standard Register hired in January to help explore best options for the company’s future. In February, Carmody was appointed as chief restructuring officer.

Standard Register, founded in 1912 in Dayton, filed for Chapter 11 bankruptcy protection in March.

In June, Minnesota-based Taylor Corp. acquired the assets of Standard Register for $307 million.
