  law.com - Decision
Caldor solicited bids for the right to purchase the inventory and chose to sell its Merchandise to the Joint Liquidators, who had formed a joint venture.
Caldor answered the Joint Liquidators' complaint by stating various affirmative defenses and counterclaims for, among other things, reformation of the contract based on mutual mistake and fraud in the inducement.
With regard to FRCP 24(a)(2), the bankruptcy court reasoned that Caldor, as a debtor-in-possession, was a fiduciary of its creditors and that in liquidating its assets, Caldor was obligated to act in the best interests of its creditors.

 About Caldor
I know that Caldor was a neat store chain, they had about 145 stores in 9 states of the east coast at the end.
When it entered Chapter 11 in september 1995, the move was widely viewed as strategic, a way to deal with vendors and factors that had grown nervous concerning Northeastern discount chains in the wake of Bradlees' bankruptcy filing, and to ensure adequate stocks for the Christmas season.
Yet here, once again, as Caldor was gearing up for a 1999 turnaround and perhaps anticipated celebrating a half-century of retailing in 2001, the same old story is being told about a retailer once hailed for its success and innovation that fought like a champion to survive.

 May 1999, pages 14-16
The only recourse available to Caldor's Chapter 11 trade creditors was to file a proof of their Chapter 11 administrative claims with the bankruptcy court and face the likelihood of payment of a di minimis portion of their unpaid trade claims in the far distant future.
When Caldor announced its decision to liquidate, Caldor's Chapter 11 lender had an outstanding secured and superpriority claim in the amount of approximately $150 million and Caldor's pre-Chapter 11 secured creditors had unpaid claims totaling approximately $225 million that are also secured by a security interest in Caldor's assets and a superpriority claim.
Caldor's bankruptcy judge rationalized his decision to grant a similar superpriority status to creditors providing goods and services during the liquidation by arguing that they would have had the same special priority status if they had shipped goods or provided services in any converted Chapter 7 case.

Because Caldor had always paid its utility invoices in a timely manner, the court held that no additional deposits were required to assure the utility companies that they would be paid.
