Despins (the \"Trustee\"), by and through his undersigned counsel, pursuant to Rule 9006(c)(1) of the Federal Rules of Bankruptcy Procedure (the \"Bankruptcy Rules\"), hereby moves (the \"Motion to Expedite\") this Court for an order scheduling an expedited hearing, if any, to consider and determine the *Motion of Chapter 11 Trustee for Entry of Protective Order* [Docket No. 874] (the \"Motion for Protective Order\"). In support of his Motion to Expedite, the Trustee respectfully states as follows:\n\n## **JURISDICTION, VENUE, AND STATUTORY BASIS**\n\n1. The United States Bankruptcy Court for the District of Connecticut (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 (as amended). The Motion for Protective Order, including this Motion to Expedite with respect thereto, is a core proceeding within the meaning of 28 U.S.C. § 157(b).\n\n<sup>1</sup> Although the Debtor's legal name is Ho Wan Kwok, he is also known as Guo Wengui, Miles Guo, and Miles Kwok, as well as numerous other aliases. The last four digits of the Debtor's taxpayer identification number are 9595.\n\n2. Venue in this District is proper pursuant to 28 U.S.C. §§ 1408 and 1409.\n\n3. The basis for the relief sought by this Motion to Expedite is Bankruptcy Rule 9006(c)(1).\n\n### **BACKGROUND**\n\n4. On February 15, 2022 (the \"Petition Date\"), the Debtor filed with the Court a voluntary petition for relief under chapter 11 of the Bankruptcy Code.\n\n5. On March 21, 2022, the United States Trustee appointed an Official Committee of Unsecured Creditors (\"Committee\") in the Debtor's chapter 11 case (the \"Chapter 11 Case\"). No examiner has been appointed in the Chapter 11 Case.\n\n6. On June 15, 2022, the Court entered a memorandum of decision and order [ECF No. 465] (the \"Trustee Order\") directing the United States Trustee to appoint a chapter 11 trustee in the Chapter 11 Case. Pursuant to the Trustee Order, the United States Trustee selected Luc A. Despins as the Trustee.\n\n7. On July 8, 2022, the Court entered an order granting the appointment of Luc A. Despins as the Trustee in the Chapter 11 Case [ECF No. 523] (the \"Appointment Order\").\n\n8. On July 28, 2022 the Trustee filed motions for Rule 2004 discovery as to the Debtor, certain of the Debtor's professionals, and certain persons and entities related to the Debtor (the \"Initial 2004 Motions\").<sup>2</sup>\n\n9. On August 16, 2022, the Court entered orders granting the Initial 2004 Motions (the \"Initial 2004 Orders\").<sup>3</sup>\n\n<sup>2</sup> *See* [ECF No. 636] (Debtor); [ECF No. 637] (Debtor's Professionals); [ECF No. 638] (Related Entities and Individuals); Case No. 22-50073 (JAM).\n\n<sup>3</sup> *See* [ECF Nos. 756, 757, 758].\n\n10. On September 7, 2022 the Trustee submitted his first supplemental motion for Rule 2004 discovery with respect to additional professionals, persons and entities related to the Debtor, and relevant financial institutions (the \"First Supplemental 2004 Motion\").<sup>4</sup>\n\n11. On September 21, 2022 the Court entered an order granting the First Supplemental 2004 Motion (together with the Initial 2004 Orders, the \"Rule 2004 Orders\").<sup>5</sup>\n\n## **MOTION FOR PROTECTIVE ORDER**<sup>6</sup>\n\n12. By the Motion for Protective Order, the Trustee requests that the Court enter the Proposed Order, governing the treatment of documents and testimony in this case, including any confidential or highly confidential information relating to the Trustee's investigation or other issues or disputes in the above-captioned chapter 11 case.\n\n13. The subject of matter of this case, including the Rule 2004 investigation the Trustee is undertaking, raises numerous issues related to confidential communications, requests for confidential advice from advisors, and sensitive business transactions. Due to the sensitive and confidential nature of this personal and business information, it is important that a protective order be entered, so that all parties and witnesses can provide information and evidence without concern that doing so may lead to the potentially harmful disclosure of confidential information.\n\n14. Most pressingly, certain respondents to the Trustee's Rule 2004 subpoenas, including former legal advisors to the Debtor and other professionals, have requested that a protective order be entered providing for procedures and protections governing confidential or highly confidential information before they produce documents to the Trustee. Accordingly, it is essential that the Court expeditiously establish a clear framework for the sharing of confidential\n\n<sup>4</sup> *See* [ECF No. 839].\n\n<sup>5</sup> *See* [ECF No. 866].\n\n<sup>6</sup> The following summary of the relief sought in the Motion for Protective Order is qualified in its entirety by the Motion for Protective Order.\n\nand highly confidential information, so that the Trustee can continue to move forward with his investigation of potential assets of the Debtor.\n\n### **RELIEF REQUESTED**\n\n15. Bankruptcy Rule 9006(c)(1) provides that the Court may reduce the notice period when requested by motion upon cause shown. Cause exists to consider and determine the Motion for Protective Order upon an expedited basis. First, the Trustee submits that the Court may and should enter the Proposed Order<sup>7</sup> without further notice or a hearing. Bankruptcy Rule 9018 provides that\n\n> On motion or on its own initiative, *with or without notice*, the court may make any order which justice requires (1) to protect the estate or any entity in respect of a trade secret or other confidential research, development, or commercial information . . . . If an order is entered under this rule without notice, any entity affected thereby may move to vacate or modify the order, and after a hearing on notice the court shall determine the motion.\n\nFed. R. Bankr. P. 9018. Accordingly, the Trustee submits that, in light of the nature of the relief requested in the Motion for Protective Order, no other or further notice need be given and a hearing in unnecessary.\n\n16. Second, should the Court elect to hold a hearing on the Motion for Protective Order, the Trustee respectfully requests that the Court schedule a hearing with respect to the Motion for Protective Order to be held Tuesday, September 27, 2022, at 2:00 p.m. (prevailing Eastern Time) or as soon as possible thereafter as the Court may be available. The Court has already set September 27, 2022 as the hearing on, among other things, the Trustee's retention application of Harney Westwood and Riegels LP [ECF No. 807].\n\n<sup>7</sup> Capitalized terms not defined herein have the meanings ascribed to such terms in the Motion for Protective Order.\n\n17. As detailed in the Motion for Protective Order, it is paramount that the Trustee obtain, as soon as possible, documents and communications from the Debtor and all other parties subpoenaed pursuant to the Rule 2004 Orders, in order to preserve and recover assets for the benefit of the Estate. Further, other material issues and disputes in the Chapter 11 Case will and do involve confidential and highly confidential information. Unless the Court enters an order substantially in the form of the Proposed Order, parties in interest, including parties subject to the Rule 2004 Orders or involved in other disputes related to the Chapter 11 Case, may refuse to produce critical records to the Trustee in a timely manner, regardless of the merits of any decision to withhold documents. Any such delay in obtaining information that might preserve and assist in the recovery of assets for the benefit of the Estate is of great concern to the Trustee and could impede the Trustee's exercise of control over such assets.\n\n18. Furthermore, there is minimal, if any, prejudice to parties in interest by expediting consideration of the Motion for Protective Order. The Trustee has had constructive discussions with the Debtor and numerous other parties subject to the Rule 2004 Orders concerning the parties' mutual interest in having a protective order govern confidential and highly confidential materials in the Chapter 11 Case as soon as practicable. Parties to adversary proceedings and other disputes in the Chapter 11 Case will only benefit from entry of the Proposed Order, which will expedite compliance with discovery obligations in the Chapter 11 Case generally.\n\n19. Finally, the Trustee requests that, if the Court does not enter the Proposed Order without further notice and without a hearing, the Court direct that the Court's order granting this Motion to Expedite and scheduling a hearing be served on all parties-in-interest appearing in the Chapter 11 Case qualified to receive electronic notice via the Court's CM/ECF service, as well as the Debtor, the Committee, and the United States Trustee.\n\n5\n\nWHEREFORE, the Trustee requests that the Court grant the relief requested in the Motion for Protective Order and enter the Proposed Order without further notice and without a hearing, but if the Court should elect to provide further notice of the Motion for Protective Order and hold a hearing, the Court issue an Order, substantially in the form attached hereto, setting a hearing on the Motion for Protective Order on September 27, 2022, at 2:00 p.m. (prevailing Eastern Time), ordering notice of such hearing as set forth in the attached Order, and ordering such other and further relief as is just and proper.\n\nDated: September 24, 2022 LUC A.

Despins（下称“受托人”），由其下述签字律师代表，根据《联邦破产程序规则》（下称“《破产规则》”）第9006(c)(1)条，特此向本法院提出动议（下称“加快动议”），请求本法院作出命令，安排一次加快听证（如有），以审议并裁定《第11章受托人提请作出保护令的动议》[案卷第874号]（下称“保护令动议”）。为支持其加快动议，受托人谨陈述如下：\n管辖权、审理地及法定依据\n\n1. 依据 28 U.S.C. §§ 157 及 1334 以及美国康涅狄格区联邦地区法院的常规移送命令（经修订），美国康涅狄格区联邦破产法院（下称“本法院”）对本事项拥有管辖权。保护令动议以及与此相关的本加快动议，属于 28 U.S.C. § 157(b) 含义范围内的核心程序。\n\n1 尽管债务人的法定姓名为 Ho Wan Kwok，但他亦被称为 Guo Wengui（郭文贵）、Miles Guo、Miles Kwok 以及诸多其他化名。债务人纳税人识别号的后四位为 9595。\n\n2. 依据 28 U.S.C. §§ 1408 及 1409，本司法管辖区的审理地是适当的。\n\n3. 本加快动议所寻求救济的依据为《破产规则》第9006(c)(1)条。\n背景\n\n4. 2022年2月15日（下称“申请日”），债务人向本法院提交了根据《破产法典》第11章寻求救济的自愿申请书。\n\n5. 2022年3月21日，美国受托人在债务人的第11章案件（下称“第11章案件”）中指定了无担保债权人官方委员会（下称“委员会”）。本第11章案件中未指定审查员。\n\n6. 2022年6月15日，本法院作出一项裁决备忘录及命令 [ECF No. 465]（下称“受托人命令”），指示美国受托人在本第11章案件中指定一名第11章受托人。根据受托人命令，美国受托人选定 Luc A. Despins 担任受托人。\n\n7. 2022年7月8日，本法院作出命令，批准指定 Luc A. Despins 担任本第11章案件的受托人 [ECF No. 523]（下称“指定命令”）。\n\n8. 2022年7月28日，受托人提交了针对债务人、债务人的若干专业人士以及与债务人相关的若干个人和实体的根据规则2004进行调查取证的动议（下称“初始2004动议”）。2\n\n9. 2022年8月16日，本法院作出命令，批准了初始2004动议（下称“初始2004命令”）。3\n\n2 参见 [ECF No. 636]（债务人）；[ECF No. 637]（债务人的专业人士）；[ECF No. 638]（相关实体和个人）；案号 22-50073 (JAM)。\n\n3 参见 [ECF Nos. 756, 757, 758]。\n\n10. 2022年9月7日，受托人提交了针对其他专业人士、与债务人相关的个人和实体以及相关金融机构的关于规则2004调查取证的第一份补充动议（下称“第一份补充2004动议”）。4\n\n11. 2022年9月21日，本法院作出命令，批准了第一份补充2004动议（与初始2004命令合称为“规则2004命令”）。5\n保护令动议6\n\n12. 经由保护令动议，受托人请求本法院作出拟议命令，对本案中文件和证言的处理进行规范，包括与受托人的调查或上述标题所列第11章案件中的其他事项或争议相关的任何机密或高度机密信息。\n\n13. 本案的标的事项，包括受托人正在进行的规则2004调查，引发了诸多涉及机密通信、向顾问寻求机密建议的请求以及敏感商业交易的问题。由于此类个人及商业信息的敏感与机密性质，作出保护令至关重要，以便各方当事人和证人能够提供信息和证据，而不必担心此举可能导致机密信息发生潜在的有害披露。\n\n14. 最为紧迫的是，受托人规则2004传票的若干答辩人，包括债务人的前法律顾问及其他专业人士，已要求在向受托人出示文件之前，先作出针对机密或高度机密信息规定程序和保护措施的保护令。因此，本法院必须迅速建立一个分享机密\n\n4 参见 [ECF No. 839]。\n\n5 参见 [ECF No. 866]。\n\n6 下文对保护令动议中所寻求救济的概述，整体以保护令动议的内容为准。\n\n和高度机密信息的明确框架，以便受托人能够继续推进其对债务人潜在资产的调查。\n请求的救济\n\n15. 《破产规则》第9006(c)(1)条规定，经动议申请并说明理由，本法院可缩短通知期限。在此存在以加急方式审议并裁定保护令动议的正当理由。首先，受托人认为，本法院可以且应当在无需进一步通知或举行听证的情况下作出拟议命令7。《破产规则》第9018条规定\n\n> 经动议或依职权，在有或无通知的情况下，法院均可作出司法公正所要求的任何命令，以：(1) 在商业秘密或其他机密研究、开发或商业信息方面保护破产财团或任何实体……如果根据本规则在无通知的情况下作出了命令，受其影响的任何实体均可申请撤销或变更该命令，且法院在发出通知举行听证后应对该动议作出裁定。\n\nFed. R. Bankr. P. 9018。据此，受托人认为，鉴于保护令动议中所请求救济的性质，无需发出其他或进一步通知，且无需举行听证。\n\n16. 其次，若本法院选择就保护令动议举行听证，受托人谨请求本法院将关于保护令动议的听证安排在2022年9月27日（星期二）下午2:00（美国东部现行时间）举行，或在法院可行的其后尽早时间举行。本法院已将2022年9月27日定为就受托人聘用 Harney Westwood and Riegels LP 的申请 [ECF No. 807] 等事项举行听证的日期。\n\n7 本文中未定义的大写术语具有保护令动议中赋予此类术语的含义。\n\n17. 如保护令动议中所详述，受托人必须尽快从债务人以及根据规则2004命令收到传票的所有其他各方处获取文件和通信记录，以便为破产财团的利益保全和追回资产。此外，本第11章案件中的其他重大问题和争议将且确实涉及机密和高度机密信息。除非本法院作出大体符合拟议命令形式的命令，否则利害关系方（包括受规则2004命令约束或卷入与本第11章案件相关的其他争议的各方）可能会拒绝及时向受托人出示关键记录，无论任何扣留文件的决定是否具有正当理由。在获取可能为破产财团利益保全并协助追回资产的信息方面发生任何此类延误，都令受托人深感关切，并可能阻碍受托人对此类资产行使控制权。\n\n18. 此外，加快审议保护令动议对利害关系方的损害极小（若有）。受托人已就各方在尽快让保护令规范本第11章案件中的机密和高度机密材料方面的共同利益，与债务人及受规则2004命令约束的诸多其他各方进行了建设性讨论。本第11章案件中的对抗性程序及其他争议的当事方只会从拟议命令的作出中获益，该命令将从总体上加快对本第11章案件中调查取证义务的履行。\n\n19. 最后，受托人请求，如果本法院未在没有进一步通知且没有听证的情况下作出拟议命令，本法院指示将准予本加快动议并安排听证的法院命令，送达给在本第11章案件中出庭且有资格通过本法院 CM/ECF 服务接收电子通知的所有利害关系方，以及债务人、委员会和美国受托人。\n为此，受托人请求本法院准予保护令动议中所请求的救济，并在没有进一步通知且没有听证的情况下作出拟议命令；但如果本法院选择对保护令动议发出进一步通知并举行听证，则请求本法院作出大体符合随附形式的命令，将保护令动议的听证定于2022年9月27日下午2:00（美国东部现行时间）举行，按下附命令中的规定命令发出该听证的通知，并命令给予公正且适当的其他及进一步救济。\n\n日期：2022年9月24日 LUC A.
