R. BANKR. P. 9006(b) AND 9027 EXTENDING THE DEADLINE BY WHICH THE DEBTOR MAY REMOVE CIVIL ACTIONS**\n\nMr. Ho Wan Kwok, the debtor and debtor-in-possession (the \"Debtor\") in the abovecaptioned case (the \"Chapter 11 Case\"), hereby files this motion (the \"Motion\") for entry of an order substantially in the form attached hereto as Exhibit A, under 28 U.S.C. § 1452 and Rules 9006(b) and 9027 of the Federal Rules of Bankruptcy Procedure (the \"Bankruptcy Rules\"), extending by 120 days the deadline by which he may file notices of removal under Bankruptcy Rule 9027(a) (the \"Removal Deadline\"), from the current deadline of May 16, 2022, through and including September 13, 2022. In support of this Motion, the Debtor, by and through his undersigned counsel, respectfully represents:\n\n### **JURISDICTION**\n\n1. This Court has jurisdiction to consider this Motion under 28 U.S.C. §§ 157 and 1334. This is a core proceeding pursuant to 28 U.S.C. § 157(b). Venue of this proceeding and this Motion in this district is proper under 28 U.S.C. §§ 1408 and 1409. The statutory predicates for the relief requested herein are 28 U.S.C. § 1452 and Bankruptcy Rules 9006(b) and 9027.\n\n<span id=\"page-0-0\"></span>Debtor is known by the following names: Guo Wengui; Miles Guo; Miles Kwok; and Ho Wan Kwok.\n\n#### **BACKGROUND**\n\n2. On February 15, 2022 (the \"Petition Date\"), the Debtor commenced the Chapter 11 Case by filing a voluntary petition for relief under Chapter 11 of Title 11 of the United States Code (the \"Chapter 11 Case\").\n\n3. The Debtor is a debtor-in-possession pursuant to Bankruptcy Code Sections 1107(a) and 1108.\n\n4. No trustee or examiner has been appointed in this Chapter 11 Case. On March 21, 2022, the Office of the United States Trustee for the District of Connecticut (the \"U.S. Trustee\") appointed the official committee of unsecured creditors (the \"Committee\") pursuant to Bankruptcy Code Section 1102.\n\n5. The factual background regarding the Debtor, including the events leading to the filing of the Chapter 11 Case, is set forth in the *Declaration of Mr. Ho Wan Kwok in Support of the Chapter 11 Case and Certain Motions* (the \"Kwok Declaration\") [Docket No. 107], filed on March 20, 2022.\n\n#### **RELIEF REQUESTED**\n\n6. By this Motion, the Debtor seeks entry of an order, substantially in the form attached hereto as Exhibit A, pursuant to Bankruptcy Rules 9006(b) and 9027 extending the Removal Deadline by 120 days, from May 16, 2022 through and including September 13, 2022, without prejudice to the Debtor's ability to request additional extensions of the Removal Deadline. The Debtor respectfully requests that the proposed September 13, 2022 Removal Deadline apply to all matters specified in Bankruptcy Rules 9027(a)(2) and (3).\n\n#### **BASIS FOR RELIEF**\n\n7. The removal of pending civil actions is governed by 28 U.S.C. § 1452 and Bankruptcy Rule 9027. Specifically, section 1452(a) provides:\n\nA party may remove any claim or cause of action in a civil action other than a proceeding before the United States Tax Court or a civil action by a governmental unit to enforce such governmental unit's police or regulatory power, to the district court for the district where such civil action is pending, if such district court has jurisdiction of such claim or cause of action under section 1334 of this title.\n\n28 U.S.C. § 1452(a).\n\n8. Bankruptcy Rule 9027(a)(2) further provides, in relevant part:\n\nIf the claim or cause of action in a civil action is pending when a case under the [Bankruptcy] Code is commenced, a notice of removal may be filed [in the bankruptcy court] only within the longest of (A) 90 days after the order for relief in the case under the [Bankruptcy] Code, (B) 30 days after entry of an order terminating a stay, if the claim or cause of action in a civil action has been stayed under § 362 of the [Bankruptcy] Code, or (C) 30 days after a trustee qualifies in a chapter 11 reorganization case but not later than 180 days after the order for relief.\n\nFed. R. Bank. P. 9027(a)(2).\n\n9. With respect to postpetition actions, Bankruptcy Rule 9027(a)(3) provides that a\n\nnotice of removal may be filed:\n\n[O]nly within the shorter of (A) 30 days after receipt, through service or otherwise, of a copy of the initial pleading setting forth the claim or cause of action sought to be removed, or (B) 30 days after receipt of the summons if the initial pleading has been filed with the court but not served with the summons.\n\n10. Under Bankruptcy Rule 9006(b), the Court may extend unexpired time periods,\n\nsuch as the Debtors' removal period, without notice:\n\n[W]hen an act is required or allowed to be done at or within a specified period by these rules or by a notice given thereunder or by order of court, the court for cause shown may at any time in its discretion . . . with or without motion or notice order the period enlarged if the request therefor is made before the expiration of the period originally prescribed or as extended by a previous order.\n\nFed. R. Bankr. P. 9006(b).\n\n11. It is well settled, in this district and others, that this Court is authorized to extend,\n\nfor cause, the removal period provided under 28 U.S.C. § 1452 and Bankruptcy Rule 9027. See\n\nMatter of Circle Litho, Inc., 12 B.R. 752, 757 (Bankr. D. Conn. 1981) (acknowledging authority to extend removal period under prior construction); see also Pacor, Inc. v. Higgins, 743 F.2d 984, 996 n.17 (3d Cir. 1984), overruled on other grounds Things Remembered, Inc. v. Petrarca, 516 U.S. 124, 134–35 (1995) (holding the bankruptcy court's power to grant an extension of the removal period pursuant to Bankruptcy Rule 9006(b) is \"clear\"); Caperton v. A.T. Massey Coal Co., Inc., 251 B.R. 322, 325 (S.D. W.Va. 2000) (\"Considered *in pari materia* with [Bankruptcy] Rule 9027, [Bankruptcy] Rule 9006 provides authority to enlarge the thirty-day time period for removing actions arising under the Bankruptcy Code.\"); In re Jandous Elec. Constr. Corp., 106 B.R. 48, 50 (Bankr. S.D.N.Y. 1989) (holding that the period in which to file motion to remove may be expanded pursuant to Bankruptcy Rule 9006); In re World Fin. Servs. Ctr., Inc., 81 B.R. 33, 39 (Bankr. S.D. Cal. 1987) (noting that \"it appears that the Supreme Court intended to give bankruptcy judges the powers to enlarge the filing periods\" of Bankruptcy Rule 9027(a) pursuant to Bankruptcy Rule 9006(b)); Raff v. Gordon, 58 B.R. 988, 990 (E.D. Pa. 1986) (\"An expansion of time [to file notices of removal] is authorized under the [Bankruptcy] Rules.\").\n\n12. As set forth in the Kwok Declaration, as of the petition date, the Debtor was named as a defendant in 21 lawsuits. Kwok Declaration ¶ 19. These lawsuits include numerous defamation lawsuits filed against the Debtor. Id. ¶ 26. As noted in the Kwok Declaration, since 2017, the Debtor has maintained a very active social media presence and has posted content that is critical of the CCP, its agents, and others within its sphere of influence. Id. Against this backdrop, certain people allegedly identified in the Debtor's social media content asserted claims against the Debtor and initiated defamation suits against him, a number of which are being funded by Wu Zheng (a/k/a Bruno Wu), an admitted CCP agent and business partner of the parent company of Pacific Alliance Asia Opportunity Fund (\"PAX\"). Id. The Debtor is also a defendant in a number of actions related to his alleged promotion of the sale of securities for a company called GTV Media Group, Inc. and virtual currency referred to as \"G Coin\" and \"G Dollar.\" Id. ¶ 25.\n\n13. To date, the Debtor has removed one proceeding to which he is a party (*i.e.*, litigation involving PAX); however, as this Chapter 11 Case develops, it may become prudent to remove others. At this point, the Debtor has not decided whether it is appropriate to file notices of removal with respect to any or all of the other civil actions to which he is a party. Proceeding with prudence, the Debtor therefore seeks an extension of the time prescribed under Bankruptcy Rule 9027(a), from May 16, 2022 through and including September 13, 2022, to protect his right to remove those actions if he deems it appropriate to do so. The extension sought will afford the Debtor a reasonable period to determine whether to remove pending litigation and will ensure that the Debtor does not forfeit valuable rights under 28 U.S.C. § 1452. Further, the rights of the Debtor's adversaries in any litigation will not be prejudiced by such an extension because any party to an action that is removed may seek to have it remanded to the state court pursuant to 28 U.S.C. § 1452(b).\n\n14. The Debtor further requests that the order approving this Motion be without prejudice to (a) any position the Debtor may take on whether section 362 of the Bankruptcy Code stays any given civil action or other litigation pending against the Debtor, and (b) the right of the Debtor to seek further extensions of the Removal Deadline.\n\n15. For the reasons stated above, the Debtor submits that the relief requested herein is appropriate and in his best interest, as well as in the best interests of his estate and creditors. Indeed, courts in this Circuit and others have routinely granted similar requests by debtors for extensions of the removal period. See, e.g., In re Windstream Holdings, Inc., No. 19-223312\n\n(RDD) (Bankr. S.D.N.Y. May 15, 2019); In re Aegean Marine Petroleum Network, Inc., No. 18- 13374 (MEW) (Bankr. S.D.N.Y. Feb. 14, 2019); In re Samuels Jewelers, Inc., Case No. 18- 11818 (KJC) (Bankr. D. Del. Nov. 26, 2018); In re J&M Sales Inc., Case No. 18-11801 (LSS) (Bankr. D. Del. Nov. 13, 2018).\n\n#### **NOTICE**\n\n16. No trustee or examiner has been appointed in this Chapter 11 case. The Debtor will provide notice of this Motion to: (a) the United States Trustee; (b) the Committee; (c) the Internal Revenue Service; (d) the United States Attorney's Office for the District of Connecticut; and (e) any party that has requested notice pursuant to Bankruptcy Rule 2002. The Debtor submits that, under the circumstances, no other or further notice is required.\n\n*[Remainder of page intentionally left blank.]*\n\n**WHEREFORE**, the Debtor respectfully requests that the Court enter an order, substantially in the form attached hereto as Exhibit A, granting the relief requested in the Motion and such other and further relief to the Debtor as may be just and proper.\n\nDated: April 19, 2022\n\n### **BROWN RUDNICK LLP**\n\nBy: */s/ William R.

Pa. 1986)（“[提交移转通知的]期限延长依据[破产]规则获得授权”）。\n\n12. 如《郭氏声明》所述，截至申请日，债务人在 21 起诉讼中被列为被告。《郭氏声明》第 19 段。这些诉讼包括对债务人提起的诸多诽谤诉讼。同上，第 26 段。如《郭氏声明》所述，自 2017 年以来，债务人一直保持非常活跃的社交媒体活动，并发布了批评 CCP、其代理人及处于其势力范围内其他人员的内容。同上。在此背景下，据称在债务人社交媒体内容中被指名道姓的某些人对债务人主张权利并对他提起了诽谤诉讼，其中若干起诉讼是由 Wu Zheng（吴征，又名 Bruno Wu）资助的，此人是公认的 CCP 代理人，也是 Pacific Alliance Asia Opportunity Fund（太盟亚洲机会基金，下称“PAX”）母公司的商业伙伴。同上。债务人还在多起诉讼中担任被告，这些诉讼与其据称推销名为 GTV Media Group, Inc. 的公司证券以及被称为“G Coin”（G币）和“G Dollar”（G美金）的虚拟货币有关。同上，第 25 段。\n\n13. 迄今为止，债务人已移转了他作为当事人的一起诉讼程序（即涉及 PAX 的诉讼）；然而，随着本第 11 章案件的进展，移转其他诉讼可能变得审慎明智。在当前阶段，债务人尚未决定是否适宜就其作为当事人的任何或全部其他民事诉讼提交移转通知。因此，本着审慎行事的原则，债务人请求将《破产规则》第 9027(a) 条规定的期限自 2022年5月16日 延长至并包含 2022年9月13日，以保障他在认为适当时移转该等诉讼的权利。所请求的延期将为债务人提供一个合理的期间来决定是否移转未决诉讼，并将确保债务人不会丧失 28 U.S.C. § 1452 项下的宝贵权利。此外，债务人在任何诉讼中的对手方的权利不会因该等延期而受到损害，因为被移转诉讼的任何当事人均可依据 28 U.S.C. § 1452(b) 申请将该诉讼发回州法院。\n\n14. 债务人进一步请求，批准本动议的裁定不得影响：(a) 债务人就《破产法典》第 362 条是否中止针对债务人的任何既定民事诉讼或其他未决诉讼所可能持有的任何立场，以及 (b) 债务人寻求进一步延长移转截止期限的权利。\n\n15. 基于上述理由，债务人认为本件所请求的救济是适当的，符合其最大利益，亦符合其破产财产和债权人的最大利益。事实上，本巡回区及其他巡回区的法院通常都会准许债务人提出的延长移转期限的类似请求。参见，例如，In re Windstream Holdings, Inc., No. 19-223312 (RDD) (Bankr. S.D.N.Y. May 15, 2019)；In re Aegean Marine Petroleum Network, Inc., No. 18-13374 (MEW) (Bankr. S.D.N.Y. Feb. 14, 2019)；In re Samuels Jewelers, Inc., Case No. 18-11818 (KJC) (Bankr. D. Del. Nov. 26, 2018)；In re J&M Sales Inc., Case No. 18-11801 (LSS) (Bankr. D. Del. Nov. 13, 2018)。\n通知\n\n16. 本第 11 章案件中尚未指定受托人或审查人。债务人将向下列各方提供本动议的通知：(a) 联邦受托人；(b) 委员会；(c) Internal Revenue Service（美国国家税务局）；(d) United States Attorney's Office for the District of Connecticut（美国康涅狄格区联邦检察官办公室）；以及 (e) 依据《破产规则》第 2002 条要求接收通知的任何当方。债务人认为，在此情况下，无须进行其他或进一步的通知。\n\n[本页以下部分特意留白。]\n\n为此，债务人谨请求法院做出形式与本件后附附件 A 实质相同的裁定，准予本动议中请求的救济，并向债务人授予可能公正且适当的该等其他和进一步救济。\n\n日期：2022年4月19日\nBROWN RUDNICK LLP\n\n签署：/s/ William R.
