Despins, as Trustee for the Estate of Ho Wan Kwok (solely for purposes of notices and communications).\n\n*September 1, 2024 through December 31, 2024* (the \"Application\"). By this Application, OMJB requests interim allowance of professional fees incurred during the period from September 1, 2024 through and including December 31, 2024 (the \"Application Period\") in Genever (US)'s chapter 11 case. In support of this Application, OMJB respectfully states as follows:\n\n# **JURISDICTION, VENUE, BASES FOR RELIEF, AND COMPLIANCE**\n\n1. The Court has jurisdiction over this matter pursuant to 28 U.S.C. §§ 157 and 1334 and the *Standing Order of Reference* from the United States District Court for the District of Connecticut. This matter is a core proceeding within the meaning of 28 U.S.C. § 157(b)(2). Venue is proper pursuant to 28 U.S.C. §§ 1408 and 1409.\n\n2. The legal predicates for the relief requested herein are sections 330 and 331 of the Bankruptcy Code, Bankruptcy Rule 2016, and Local Rule 2016-1.\n\n3. OMJB believes that this Application, together with the attachments hereto, substantially complies with the Bankruptcy Rules, Local Rule 2016-1, and the *United States Trustee's Guidelines for Reviewing Applications for Compensation and Reimbursement of Expenses Filed Under 11 U.S.C. § 330 by Attorneys in Larger Chapter 11 Cases* (the \"U.S. Trustee Guidelines\").2 OMJB respectfully requests a waiver of any of the foregoing requirements not met by this Application.\n\n- 4. Attached and incorporated herein by reference are the following Exhibits:\n\t- **Exhibit A** contains the Proposed Order granting this Application.\n\t- **Exhibit B** is a timekeeper summary that includes the name, title, bar admission, hourly billing rate, aggregate hours, and amount of fees earned for each OMJB individual who provided services during the Application Period;\n\n2 OMJB reserves all rights as to the relevance and substantive legal effect of the U.S. Trustee Guidelines with respect to any application for compensation in these chapter 11 cases.\n\n- **Exhibit C** is a summary of expenses incurred and reimbursement sought, by expense type, during the Application Period; and\n- **Exhibit D** contains the detail of the fees and expenses incurred during the Application Period.\n\n# **BACKGROUND**\n\n# **I. Chapter 11 Cases**\n\n5. On October 12, 2020, Genever (US) filed a voluntary petition for relief under chapter 11 of title 11 of the United States Bankruptcy Code before the United States Bankruptcy Court for the Southern District of New York (the \"SDNY Bankruptcy Court\"), thereby commencing case number 20-12411 (JLG). See Chapter 11 Petition [Docket No. 1 in Case No. 22-50592 (JAM)].\n\n6. No trustee or examiner has been appointed in Genever (US)'s case.\n\n7. On February 15, 2022 (the \"Petition Date\"), Ho Wan Kwok (the \"Individual\n\nDebtor\") filed a voluntary petition for relief under the Bankruptcy Code in the United States Bankruptcy Court for the District of Connecticut (Bridgeport Division) (the \"Court\").\n\n8. On March 21, 2022, the United States Trustee appointed an Official Committee of Unsecured Creditors (the \"Committee\") in the Individual Debtor's chapter 11 case. No examiner has been appointed in the Individual Debtor's chapter 11 case.\n\n9. On June 15, 2022, the Court entered a memorandum of decision and order [Docket No. 465] (the \"Trustee Order\") directing the United States Trustee to appoint a chapter 11 trustee in the Individual Debtor's chapter 11 case.\n\n10. Pursuant to the Trustee Order, the United States Trustee selected Luc A. Despins as the Trustee. On July 8, 2022, the Court entered an order granting the appointment of Luc A. Despins as trustee (the \"Trustee\") in the Individual Debtor's chapter 11 case\n\n11. On November 3, 2022, the SDNY Bankruptcy Court entered an order transferring the venue of Genever (US)'s chapter 11 case to this Court. *See Memorandum Decision and Order Granting the Joint Motion of (A) Genever Holdings LLC and (B) Luc A. Despins as Chapter 11 Trustee for Estate of Ho Wan Kwok to Transfer, Pursuant to 28 U.S.C. §§ 1408, and 1412 and Bankruptcy Rule 1014(a), Venue of Chapter 11 Case of Genever Holdings LLC to Bankruptcy Court for District of Connecticut* [Docket No. 225 in Case No. 22-50592 (JAM)].\n\n12. The chapter 11 cases of the Individual Debtor, Genever (US), and Genever Holdings Corporation (\"Genever (BVI)\") are being jointly administered before this Court for procedural purposes only. *See* Docket No. 1141 in Case No. 22-50073 (JAM).\n\n13. By order entered August 22, 2023, the Court authorized OMJB's retention as special insurance coverage counsel to Genever (US) [Docket No. 2105] (the \"Retention Order\") effective as of July 27, 2023 in Genever (US)'s chapter 11 case. The Retention Order authorizes OMJB to be compensated on an hourly basis and reimbursed for actual and necessary out-ofpocket expenses pursuant to sections 328 and 330 of the Bankruptcy Code, the Bankruptcy Rules, the Local Rules, and such orders as the Court may direct.\n\n### **II.

In accordance with the Interim Compensation Procedures Order, on October 21, 2024, OMJB filed and served its monthly fee statement [Docket No. 3732] (the \"September Fee Statement\") requesting payment of 80% of all fees and 100% of all expenses actually and necessarily incurred for services rendered during the period from September 1, 2024 through September 30, 2024, in the amounts of \\$8,904.00 (80% of \\$11,130.00) and \\$435.94,\n\nrespectively.

No objections were filed in response to the December\n\nFee Statement. Accordingly, the estate has paid OMJB \\$10,333.02 for fees and expenses with respect to the December Fee Statement.\n\n### **ALLOWANCE REQUEST**\n\n22. The Applicant is applying for compensation pursuant to Sections 330 and 331 of the Bankruptcy Code for legal services performed for Genever (US) during the Application Period.\n\n23. For the Application Period, the Applicant seeks allowance of \\$35,485.00 as compensation for services rendered and allowance and reimbursement of \\$2,421.66 in expenses incurred in connection with such services. The Applicant devoted 95.1 hours to this case during the Application Period, equating to an overall blended rate of \\$373.13.\n\n24. As noted, OMJB has already received payment of \\$28,388.00 of the fees incurred during the Application Period and \\$2,421.66 of the expenses incurred during the Application Period, such that OMJB is only seeking payment of the remaining 20% of its fees incurred during the Application Period, namely \\$7,097.00.\n\n25. Throughout the Application Period, the Applicant maintained records to indicate the name of each professional working on this matter, the time spent on a particular issue, and the nature of the work performed. These records, which describe in detail the services rendered by the Applicant, were created at the approximate time the services were performed.\n\n26. Annexed hereto and made a part hereof as **Exhibit D** is a detailed billing report, upon which this application is based that contains each individual professional's time for Genever (US)'s bankruptcy proceedings, itemizing the dates upon which services were rendered, including a summary of the services on each of such dates by each person rendering the service, the time spent in rendering such service, and the dollar value of such services. The time detail\n\nattached hereto as **Exhibit D** include certain redactions to protect against the disclosure of privileged or confidential information.\n\n#### **SUMMARY OF SERVICES RENDERED**\n\n27. OMJB is special insurance coverage counsel for Genever (US) in its pending litigation against American International Group, Inc. (\"AIG\") under Adv. Proc. No. 23-5007 (the \"AIG Action\"). Generally, OMJB represents Genever (US) with respect to insurance coverage advice and litigation services to recover insurance benefits claimed to be due to Genever (US) for losses it sustained as well as to any matters related to the AIG Action.\n\n28. During the Application Period, OMJB continued to work closely with Genever (US) regarding its prosecution of the AIG Action, reviewing documents and pursuing discovery from AIG and nonparties, taking the deposition of Wolfson Insurance, and preparing briefing in connection with a stay of discovery. In addition, OMJB prepared for and attended the status conference with respect to the AIG Action on October 8, 2024, as well as worked with counsel for AIG regarding a scheduling order, including as it relates to expert discovery. Finally, OMJB prepared a substantive response to AIG's submission of supplemental materials in opposition to Genever (US)'s motion for partial summary judgment in the AIG Action.\n\n29. The work undertaken by OMJB to date has been significant and remains ongoing, with additional work expected in due course.\n\n#### **LEGAL AUTHORITY FOR COMPENSATION**\n\n30. All of the professional services for which this award is being sought hereby were rendered solely on behalf of Genever (US) in connection with the chapter 11 cases herein.\n\n31. Applicant respectfully submits that its services have benefited Genever (US) with the expertise and skill required in insurance litigation. The services for which such\n\ncompensation is requested were performed for and on behalf of Genever (US). Such services have been necessary to protect and enforce the rights and interests of Genever (US) in connection with these chapter 11 cases. The reasonable value of services rendered by OMJB in these cases is based upon OMJB' usual hourly rates for matters of this nature.\n\n32. Section 330 of the Bankruptcy Code prescribes the general standards for determining the amount of compensation to be paid to professionals. The Applicant submits that the amount sought for the Application Period represents reasonable compensation for professional services rendered based upon the time spent, the nature, the extent, and the value of such services, taking into account the cost of comparable services in a non-bankruptcy case.\n\n33. Section 331 of the Bankruptcy Code provides for interim compensation of professionals and incorporates the substantive standards of section 330 of the Bankruptcy Code to govern the Court's award of such compensation. Section 330(a) of the Bankruptcy Code provides that, after notice and a hearing, the Court may award a professional employed under 11 U.S.C. § 327 \"reasonable compensation for actual, necessary services rendered\" and \"reimbursement for actual, necessary expenses.\" 11 U.S.C. § 330(a)(1).3\n\n34. In determining the amount of \"reasonable compensation,\" the Court must consider the nature, extent, and value of the services, taking into account all the relevant factors, including the time spent on such services, the rates charged for such services, whether the services were necessary and beneficial, whether the services were performed in a reasonable amount of time commensurate with the complexity, importance, and nature of the problem, issue, or task addressed, and whether the compensation is reasonable based on the customary\n\n3 Under section 328(a) of the Bankruptcy Code, with bankruptcy court approval, a trustee may employ professional persons under section 327(a) of the Bankruptcy Code \"on any reasonable terms and conditions of employment, including on a retainer, on an hourly basis, on a fixed or percentage fee basis, or on a contingent fee basis.\" 11 U.S.C. § 328(a).\n\ncompensation charged by comparably skilled practitioners in cases other than cases under the Bankruptcy Code. See 11 U.S.C. § 330(a)(3). The Court enjoys \"considerable discretion in determining reasonable fee awards.\" *In re Ahead Communication Systems, Inc.*, 395 B.R. 512 (D. Conn. 2008).\n\n35. In assessing the \"reasonableness\" of the fees requested, the Second Circuit has stated that courts should consider the factors enumerated in *Johnson v. Ga. Highway Express, Inc.*, 4 while also incorporating the \"lodestar method.\" *See Arbor Hill Concerned Citizens Neighborhood Ass'n v. County of Albany and Albany County Bd. of Elections*, 522 F.3d 182, 190 (2d Cir. 2007) (*citing Johnson v. Ga. Highway Express, Inc.*, 488 F.2d 714 (5th Cir.1974), *abrogated on other grounds* by *Blanchard v. Bergeron*, 489 U.S. 87, 92–93, 96 (1989)). The \"lodestar method\" of calculating the reasonable fee contemplates \"the number of hours reasonably expended . . . multiplied by a reasonable hourly rate.\" *See Hensley v. Eckerhart*, 461 U.S. 424, 433 (1983); *Gisbrecht v. Barnhart*, 535 U.S. 789, 801 (2002); *Perdue v. Kenny A.*, 130 S.Ct. 1662, 1672 (2010); *In re Drexel Burnham Lambert Grp., Inc.*, 133 B.R. 13 (Bankr. S.D.N.Y. 1991). The factors set forth in *Johnson* and *In re First Colonial Corp. of Am.*, 544 F.2d 1291, 1298–99 (5th Cir. 1977) have been adopted by most courts.5 *See In re Nine Assocs., Inc.*, 76 B.R. 943, 945 (S.D.N.Y. 1987) (adopting *First Colonial/Johnson* analysis); *In re Cuisine*\n\n4 The twelve *Johnson* factors are (1) the time and labor required, (2) the novelty and difficulty of the questions, (3) the skill requisite to perform the legal service properly, (4) the preclusion of other employment by the attorney due to acceptance of the case, (5) the customary fee, (6) whether the fee is fixed or contingent, (7) the time limitations imposed by the client or the circumstances, (8) the amount involved and the results obtained, (9) the experience, reputation, and ability of the attorneys, (10) the \"undesirability\" of the case, (11) the nature and length of the professional relationship with the client, and (12) awards in similar cases. *Johnson*, 488 F.2d at 717-19.\n\n5 The factors articulated in *First Colonial* were first articulated by the Fifth Circuit in *Johnson*, with the *First Colonial* court adding the factor of the \"spirit of economy,\" which was later rejected by Congress. *See Stroock & Stroock & Lavan v. Hillsborough Holdings Corp. (In re Hillsborough Holdings Corp.)*, 127 F.3d 1398, 1403 (11th Cir. 1997).\n\n*Magazine, Inc.*, 61 B.R. 210, 212–13 (Bankr. S.D.N.Y 1986) (same); *Green v. City of New York*, 403 F. Appx. 626, 629 (2d Cir. 2010) (summary order); *see generally* 3 COLLIER ON BANKRUPTCY ¶ 330.03[9] (Lawrence P. King ed., 16th ed. 2016) (describing *First Colonial* and *Johnson* as the \"leading cases with regard to the factors to be considered in determining a reasonable allowance of compensation\").\n\n36. In accordance with the factors enumerated in section 330 of the Bankruptcy Code and applicable case law, the amount requested herein by OMJB is fair and reasonable.\n\n#### **STATUTORY COMPLIANCE**\n\n38. No agreement or understanding exists between OMJB and any other person for the sharing of compensation received or to be received for services rendered in or in connection with this matter. OMJB will not, in any form or guise, share or agree to share compensation for services with any person, nor will OMJB share in the compensation for any other person rendering service in these cases, except as so provided by Section 504(b) of the Bankruptcy Code and Rule 2016 of the Bankruptcy Rules.\n\n#### **RESERVATION OF RIGHTS**\n\n39. To the extent that time or disbursement charges for services rendered or expenses incurred during the Application Period are not included in this Application, or OMJB has for any reason not sought compensation or reimbursement with respect to such services, OMJB reserves the right to request compensation and reimbursement for such services in a supplemental or future application in these chapter 11 cases. Also, OMJB does not waive, and expressly reserves, its right to respond to any objections regarding this Application and the amounts sought for services rendered and expenses incurred.\n\n# **NO PRIOR REQUEST**\n\n40.

On October 12, 2020，Genever (US) 向 United States Bankruptcy Court for the Southern District of New York（纽约南区联邦破产法院）（以下简称“SDNY 破产法院”）提交了依据《美国法典》第 11 编第 11 章寻求救济的自愿申请，从而启动案号 20-12411 (JLG)。见《第 11 章申请》[Case No. 22-50592 (JAM) 中的 Docket No. 1]。\n\n6. Genever (US) 的案件中尚未指定受托人或审查员。\n\n7. On February 15, 2022（以下简称“申请日”），Ho Wan Kwok（以下简称“个人债务人”）向 United States Bankruptcy Court for the District of Connecticut (Bridgeport Division)（美国康涅狄格联邦破产法院布里奇波特分院）（以下简称“本院”）提交了根据《破产法典》寻求救济的自愿申请。\n\n8. On March 21, 2022，美国受托人在个人债务人的第 11 章案件中指定了无担保债权人正式委员会（以下简称“委员会”）。个人债务人的第 11 章案件中尚未指定审查员。\n\n9. On June 15, 2022，本院作出决定备忘录及命令 [Docket No. 465]（以下简称“受托人命令”），指示美国受托人在个人债务人的第 11 章案件中指定一名第 11 章受托人。\n\n10. 根据受托人命令，美国受托人选定 Luc A. Despins 为受托人。On July 8, 2022，本院录入一项命令，批准任命 Luc A. Despins 为个人债务人第 11 章案件中的受托人（以下简称“受托人”）\n\n11. On November 3, 2022，SDNY 破产法院录入一项命令，将 Genever (US) 第 11 章案件的审理地移送至本院。见《准许 (A) Genever Holdings LLC 及 (B) 作为 Ho Wan Kwok 遗产第 11 章受托人的 Luc A. Despins 根据 28 U.S.C. §§ 1408, and 1412 及破产规则 1014(a) 将 Genever Holdings LLC 第 11 章案件审理地移送至康涅狄格地区破产法院的联合动议的决定备忘录及命令》[Case No. 22-50592 (JAM) 中的 Docket No. 225]。\n\n12. 个人债务人、Genever (US) 及 Genever Holdings Corporation（“Genever (BVI)”）的第 11 章案件目前仅为程序目的在本院合并管理。见 Case No. 22-50073 (JAM) 中的 Docket No. 1141。\n\n13. 根据于 August 22, 2023 录入的命令，本院授权 OMJB 自 July 27, 2023 起在 Genever (US) 的第 11 章案件中受聘担任其特别保险承保范围律师 [Docket No. 2105]（以下简称“聘任命令”）。聘任命令授权 OMJB 根据《破产法典》第 328 及 330 条、破产规则、地方法规以及本院可能作出的命令，按小时获得报酬，并就实际发生且必要的自付支出获得偿还。\n\nII. 先前的临时费用申请\n\n14. On February 16, 2024，OMJB 提交其《O'Sullivan McCormack Jensen & Bliss PC 作为特别保险承保范围律师，就自 July 27, 2023 Through December 31, 2023 期间的报酬及支出偿还提出的第一次临时费用申请》[Docket No. 2928]（以下简称“第一次临时费用申请”），请求临时准许本第 11 章案件中于 July 27, 2023 through and including December 31, 2023 期间发生的专业费用。On March 20, 2024，本院准许了第一次临时费用申请。\n\n15. On June 24, 2024，OMJB 提交其《O'Sullivan McCormack Jensen & Bliss PC 作为特别保险承保范围律师，就自 January 1, 2024 Through April 30, 2024 期间的报酬及支出偿还提出的第二次临时费用申请》[Docket No. 3279]（以下简称“第二次临时费用申请”），请求临时准许本第 11 章案件中于 January 1, 2024 through and including April 30, 2024 期间发生的专业费用。On July 23, 2024，本院准许了第二次临时费用申请。\n\n16. On October 15, 2024，OMJB 提交其《O'Sullivan McCormack Jensen & Bliss PC 作为特别保险承保范围律师，就自 May 1, 2024 Through August 31, 2024 期间的报酬及支出偿还提出的第三次临时费用申请》[Docket No. 3697]（以下简称“第三次临时费用申请”），请求临时准许本第 11 章案件中于 May 1, 2024 through and including August 31, 2024 期间发生的专业费用。On November 13, 2024，本院准许了第三次临时费用申请。\n\nIII. 月度费用报表\n\n17. On August 18, 2023，本院录入《关于为获聘专业人士确立临时报酬及支出偿还程序的命令》[Docket No. 2094]（以下简称“临时报酬程序命令”），该命令除其他事项外，批准了按月支付 80% 费用及 100% 支出的程序。\n\n18. 根据临时报酬程序命令，On October 21, 2024，OMJB 提交并送达其月度费用报表 [Docket No. 3732]（以下简称“September 费用报表”），请求就 September 1, 2024 through September 30, 2024 期间提供的服务实际且必要发生的全部费用的 80% 及全部支出的 100% 支付款项，金额分别为 $8,904.00（$11,130.00 的 80%）及 $435.94，\n\n分别。就九月份费用报表，未提出任何异议。因此，破产财团已就九月份费用报表向 OMJB 支付费用和开支共计 \\$9,339.94。\n\n19. 2024年11月20日，OMJB 提交并送达其月度费用报表 [Docket No. 3841]（“十月份费用报表”），请求支付其在 2024年10月1日 至 2024年10月31日 期间提供服务所实际且必要发生的全部费用的 80% 及全部开支的 100%，金额分别为 \\$3,316.00（\\$4,145.00 的 80%）和 \\$179.22。就十月份费用报表，未提出任何异议。因此，破产财团已就十月份费用报表向 OMJB 支付费用和开支共计 \\$3,495.22。\n\n20. 2024年12月20日，OMJB 提交并送达其月度费用报表 [Docket No. 3922]（“十一月份费用报表”），请求支付其在 2024年11月1日 至 2024年11月30日 期间提供服务所实际且必要发生的全部费用的 80% 及全部开支的 100%，金额分别为 \\$7,434.00（\\$9,292.50 的 80%）和 \\$207.48。就十一月份费用报表，未提出任何异议。因此，破产财团已就十一月份费用报表向 OMJB 支付费用和开支共计 \\$7,641.48。\n\n21. 2025年1月21日，OMJB 提交并送达其月度费用报表 [Docket No. 3983]（“十二月份费用报表”），请求支付其在 2024年12月1日 至 2024年12月31日 期间提供服务所实际且必要发生的全部费用的 80% 及全部开支的 100%，金额分别为 \\$8,734.00（\\$10,917.50 的 80%）和 \\$1,599.02。就十二月份费用报表，未提出任何异议。因此，破产财团已就十二月份费用报表向 OMJB 支付费用和开支共计 \\$10,333.02。\n\n请求批准\n\n22. 申请人依据《破产法》第 330 条及第 331 条，就其在申请期间内为 Genever (US)（Genever（美国））提供的法律服务申请报酬。\n\n23. 就申请期间，申请人请求批准 \\$35,485.00 作为所提供服务的报酬，并请求批准及偿付就该等服务所发生的 \\$2,421.66 开支。申请人在申请期间内为本案投入 95.1 小时，折合总体混合费率为 \\$373.13。\n\n24. 如前所述，OMJB 已收取申请期间所发生费用中的 \\$28,388.00，以及申请期间所发生开支中的 \\$2,421.66，因此 OMJB 仅请求支付其在申请期间所发生费用剩余的 20%，即 \\$7,097.00。\n\n25. 在整个申请期间，申请人保留记录，以载明处理本事项的每名专业人员的姓名、就特定问题所花费的时间以及所完成工作的性质。该等记录详细说明了申请人所提供的服务，并在提供服务的大致同时制作。\n\n26. 随附于本申请并构成本申请一部分的附件 D 是本申请所依据的详细计费报告，其中载有各名专业人员就 Genever (US) 破产程序所投入的时间，逐项列明提供服务的日期，包括每名提供服务者在每一该等日期所提供服务的摘要、提供该等服务所花费的时间，以及该等服务的金额价值。作为附件 D 随附的时间明细包含若干删节，以防止披露享有特权或保密的信息。\n\n所提供服务摘要\n\n27. OMJB 是 Genever (US) 在其针对 American International Group, Inc.（美国国际集团公司，简称“AIG”）提起的、案号为 Adv. Proc. No. 23-5007（“AIG 诉讼”）的未决诉讼中的特别保险保障律师。一般而言，OMJB 就保险保障意见以及诉讼服务代表 Genever (US)，以追回据称应付给 Genever (US) 的、因其遭受损失而产生的保险给付，以及处理与 AIG 诉讼有关的任何事项。\n\n28. 在申请期间，OMJB 就 Genever (US) 对 AIG 诉讼的推进继续与其密切合作，审阅文件并向 AIG 及非当事人进行证据开示，询问 Wolfson Insurance（沃尔夫森保险公司），并就中止证据开示准备书面陈述。此外，OMJB 就 AIG 诉讼于 2024年10月8日 准备并出席了案件状态会议，并就排期命令与 AIG 的律师合作，包括与专家证据开示相关的事项。最后，OMJB 就 AIG 在 AIG 诉讼中反对 Genever (US) 部分简易判决动议而提交补充材料一事，准备了实质性答复。\n\n29. OMJB 迄今所开展的工作十分重大，且仍在进行中，预计将在适当时候开展额外工作。\n\n报酬的法律依据\n\n30. 本申请据此请求裁定的所有专业服务，均仅为 Genever (US) 就本案第 11 章案件而提供。\n\n31. 申请人谨陈，其服务凭借保险诉讼所需的专业知识和技能，使 Genever (US) 受益。请求该等报酬的服务系为 Genever (US) 并代表 Genever (US) 提供。该等服务对于保护和执行 Genever (US) 就该等第 11 章案件所享有的权利和利益属必要。OMJB 在该等案件中所提供服务的合理价值，系以 OMJB 就此类事项通常收取的小时费率为基础。\n\n32. 《破产法》第 330 条规定了确定应向专业人员支付报酬金额的一般标准。申请人陈述，就申请期间所请求的金额，考虑到所花费的时间、该等服务的性质、范围及价值，并考虑非破产案件中可比服务的成本，构成对所提供专业服务的合理报酬。\n\n33. 《破产法》第 331 条规定了专业人员的临时报酬，并纳入《破产法》第 330 条的实体标准，以规范本院对该等报酬的裁定。《破产法》第 330(a) 条规定，经通知及听证后，本院可向根据 11 U.S.C. § 327 聘用的专业人员裁定“对实际提供的必要服务的合理报酬”以及“对实际且必要开支的偿付”。11 U.S.C. § 330(a)(1).3\n\n34. 在确定“合理报酬”的金额时，本院必须考虑服务的性质、范围和价值，并考量所有相关因素，包括该等服务所花费的时间、就该等服务收取的费率、该等服务是否必要且有益、该等服务是否在与所处理问题、争议或任务的复杂性、重要性和性质相称的合理时间内完成，以及基于具有可比技能的执业人员在非《破产法》案件中惯常收取的报酬，该报酬是否合理。见 11 U.S.C. § 330(a)(3)。本院在确定合理费用裁定时享有“相当大的裁量权”。In re Ahead Communication Systems, Inc., 395 B.R. 512 (D. Conn. 2008)。\n\n35. 在评估所请求费用的“合理性”时，第二巡回上诉法院（Second Circuit）指出，法院应考虑 Johnson v. Ga. Highway Express, Inc., 4 中列举的因素，同时采用“基数法”。见 Arbor Hill Concerned Citizens Neighborhood Ass'n v. County of Albany and Albany County Bd. of Elections, 522 F.3d 182, 190 (2d Cir. 2007)（引用 Johnson v. Ga. Highway Express, Inc., 488 F.2d 714 (5th Cir.1974)，因其他理由被 Blanchard v. Bergeron, 489 U.S. 87, 92–93, 96 (1989) 推翻）。计算合理费用的“基数法”设想采用“合理支出的小时数……乘以合理的小时费率”。见 Hensley v. Eckerhart, 461 U.S. 424, 433 (1983); Gisbrecht v. Barnhart, 535 U.S. 789, 801 (2002); Perdue v. Kenny A., 130 S.Ct. 1662, 1672 (2010); In re Drexel Burnham Lambert Grp., Inc., 133 B.R. 13 (Bankr. S.D.N.Y. 1991)。Johnson 及 In re First Colonial Corp. of Am., 544 F.2d 1291, 1298–99 (5th Cir. 1977) 所列因素已被大多数法院采纳。5 见 In re Nine Assocs., Inc., 76 B.R. 943, 945 (S.D.N.Y. 1987)（采纳 First Colonial/Johnson 分析）；In re Cuisine Magazine, Inc., 61 B.R. 210, 212–13 (Bankr. S.D.N.Y 1986)（同上）；Green v. City of New York, 403 F. Appx. 626, 629 (2d Cir. 2010)（简易命令）；一般参见 3 COLLIER ON BANKRUPTCY ¶ 330.03[9] (Lawrence P. King ed., 16th ed. 2016)（将 First Colonial 和 Johnson 描述为“关于确定合理批准报酬时应考虑因素的主导性案件”）。\n\n4 Johnson 的十二项因素为：(1) 所需时间和劳动；(2) 问题的新颖性和难度；(3) 适当提供法律服务所需的技能；(4) 律师因接受该案件而被排除从事其他工作；(5) 惯常费用；(6) 费用是固定的还是或有的；(7) 客户或情势施加的时间限制；(8) 所涉金额和取得的结果；(9) 律师的经验、声誉和能力；(10) 案件的“不受欢迎程度”；(11) 与客户之间专业关系的性质和持续时间；以及 (12) 类似案件中的裁定。Johnson, 488 F.2d at 717-19。\n\n5 First Colonial 所阐明的因素最初由第五巡回上诉法院（Fifth Circuit）在 Johnson 中阐明，而 First Colonial 法院增加了“经济精神”这一因素，后被国会否决。见 Stroock & Stroock & Lavan v. Hillsborough Holdings Corp. (In re Hillsborough Holdings Corp.), 127 F.3d 1398, 1403 (11th Cir. 1997)。\n\n36. 根据《破产法》第 330 条所列因素及适用判例法，OMJB 在本申请中请求的金额公平且合理。\n\n法定合规\n\n38. OMJB 与任何其他人之间不存在关于分配已收取或将收取的、为本事项中或与本事项有关提供服务所获报酬的协议或谅解。除《破产法》第 504(b) 条和《破产规则》第 2016 条另有规定外，OMJB 不会以任何形式或方式与任何人分配或同意分配服务报酬，OMJB 亦不会分享在该等案件中提供服务的任何其他人的报酬。\n\n权利保留\n\n39. 在申请期间提供服务或发生开支的时间费用或支出费用未纳入本申请的范围内，或者 OMJB 因任何原因未就该等服务请求报酬或偿付的，OMJB 保留在该等第 11 章案件中通过补充申请或日后申请请求该等服务的报酬和偿付的权利。此外，OMJB 不放弃并明确保留其就本申请以及就所提供服务和所发生开支请求的金额回应任何异议的权利。\n\n此前未提出请求\n\n40. 此前未向本院或任何其他法院提出过本申请所请求救济的请求。\n\n[本页其余部分特意留空。]\n\n因此，OMJB谨请求作出一项实质上采用随附格式的命令：(i) 准许就申请期间提供的专业服务支付金额为$35,485.00的临时报酬，并报销金额为$2,421.66的费用；(ii) 授权并指示从破产财团迅速支付尚未支付的费用和开支；(iii) 准许就已提供的专业服务支付该等报酬和款项，且不损害OMJB向各破产财团就已完成服务及已发生开支的全额价值寻求进一步报酬和/或付款的权利；以及(iv) 给予OMJB公正的其他及进一步救济。\n\n日期：February 24, 2025\n康涅狄格州格拉斯顿伯里\n\n签署人：/s/ Michael T.
