Visteon gets bankruptcy court OK to pay wages


    WILMINGTON, Delaware (Reuters) - U.S. auto parts maker Visteon Corp received interim court approval on Friday to pay wages, benefits and payroll taxes while in bankruptcy.

    The approval came during a hearing in U.S. Bankruptcy Court in Delaware.

    Visteon said that debtor-in-possession, or DIP, financing would be discussed at a subsequent hearing.

    Visteon, spun off by Ford Motor Co in 2000, filed for bankruptcy protection on Thursday, another casualty of the U.S. auto industry's financial troubles.
