For the reasons set forth by the Official Committee of Unsecured Creditors, the Court should preferably convert this case to one under Chapter 7. Should the Court not be so inclined, appointment of a Chapter 11 trustee is preferable to dismissal.\n\nAs previously stated, Creditor concurs that Debtor does not come to this case with clean hands, but this favors a process where all creditors, jointly and without favoritism to the interests of one who, through happenstance, obtained judgment first, can marshal the assets of Debtor, a penniless billionaire.[1](#page-0-0) Creditors are far better served with Debtor remaining subject to the jurisdiction of this Court. Although the filing of the petition may have been a strategic tactic to avoid imprisonment, it was beneficial to the creditors. Dismissal is not in the best interests of any the creditors.\n\n<span id=\"page-0-0\"></span><sup>1</sup> Debtor is commonly regarded as a billionaire. *See, e.g.,* Hilgers, Lauren, *The Mystery of the Exiled Billionaire Whistle-Blower,* N.Y. Times Magazine (Jan. 10, 2018), available at [<http](http) >.\n\nWHEREFORE Creditor Logan Cheng respectfully requests this Honorable Court convert the matter to one under Chapter 7 and, barring that, appoint a Chapter 11 trustee.\n\nDated: May 20, 2022.
