Balick. Balick extended the period until Jan. 15, blocking creditors or anyone else from filing a competing reorganization plan that the court would have to consider simultaneously. The period was to have expired today. Continental Airlines Holdings Inc., which filed for Chapter 11 bankruptcy protection in December, 1990, said it needs more time to negotiate 32 contracts relating to a bid by Air Canada-Air Partners to buy Continental for $450 million. Continental filed a reorganization plan Nov. 16. This article is copyright 1992 The Los Angeles Times Home Edition.
