Solyndra got a favorable ruling from IRS

And the timing of the ruling, just weeks before getting the stimulus loan, raises questions about whether the White House pulled strings for Solyndra, at other agencies.

Also on Tuesday, a bankruptcy judge refused to extend the deadline for the sale of Solyndra's assets, now set to be auctioned off a month from now.

Solyndra's creditors argued it's not enough time to arrange financing, but the judge ordered Solyndra to find potential buyers who do have the money at a conference in Dallas next month.
