UNITED STATES BANKRUPTCY COURT DISTRICT OF CONNECTICUT BRIDGEPORT DIVISION(美国康涅狄格区破产法院布里奇波特分院)
关于:
第 11 章
案号:22-50073 (JAM)
HO WAN KWOK(郭文贵)等,[1]
债务人。
(合并审理)
关于远程参加 2023 年 3 月 21 日案件进展会议的动议
根据《美国法典》第 11 卷第 105 条(a)款(11 U.S.C § 105(a))及《联邦破产诉讼程序规则》(Federal Rules of Bankruptcy Procedure,简称“破产规则”)第 1001 条,Bravo Luck Limited 由其下述署名律师代表,谨向本法院提出动议,请求准许 Troutman Pepper Hamilton Sanders LLP 律师事务所的 Francis J. Lawall 律师代表 Bravo Luck 远程出席目前定于 2023 年 3 月 21 日举行的听证会。
背景及所请求的救济
1. 2023 年 3 月 17 日,上述案由案件所指定的第 11 章受托人 Luc A. Despins 提交了《关于举行案件进展会议的紧急请求》[案卷号 1559](下称“《请求》”),请求法院在 2023 年 3 月 20 日当周安排一次案件进展会议,以便就 Lady May 号游艇、Sherry Netherland 公寓、正在进行的破产规则第 2004 条证据开示程序以及未决的对抗性诉讼的最新情况向法院作出汇报。
1 这些第 11 章案件中的债务人为 Ho Wan Kwok(纳税人识别号后四位:9595)、Genever Holdings LLC(纳税人识别号后四位:8202)以及 Genever Holdings Corporation。受托人、Genever Holdings LLC 和 Genever Holdings Corporation 的邮寄地址为 Paul Hastings LLP, 200 Park Avenue, New York, NY 10166 转交 Ho Wan Kwok 破产财团受托人 Luc A. Despins(仅用于接收通知和联络)。
2. 2023 年 3 月 20 日,法院作出一项裁定 [案卷号 1561],定于美国东部时间 2023 年 3 月 21 日下午 2:30 举行案件进展会议(下称“案件进展会议”),以处理《请求》中提出的事项,以及债务人关于延期审理其罢免受托人动议的动议 [案卷号 1557]、在第 23-05002 号对抗性诉讼中提交的两份延期动议 [对抗性诉讼案卷号 29 和 31],以及在第 22-05003 号对抗性诉讼中提交的加快听证动议 [对抗性诉讼案卷号 149]。确定案件进展会议时间的裁定中并未提供远程参与的选项。
3. Bravo Luck 是本法院受理的若干对抗性诉讼中的被告(所有这些诉讼均涉及 Sherry Netherland 公寓),希望由 Lawall 律师参加该案件进展会议。然而,Lawall 律师目前身在宾夕法尼亚州费城,鉴于本次案件进展会议的通知时间极为紧迫,未能安排前往康涅狄格州布里奇波特。此外,在案件进展会议上要处理的事项中,仅有一小部分涉及 Bravo Luck。Bravo Luck 谨认为,准许 Lawall 律师远程出席本次案件进展会议在此等情况下是合情合理的,既符合破产规则第 1001 条的规定,亦有利于促进本次案件进展会议获得公正、迅速且经济的审理。
据此,基于上述理由,Bravo Luck 谨请求准许其下述署名律师 Lawall 律师在本案进展会议中以远程方式向本法院出庭。
