: --------------------------------------------------------------- x FIRST INTERIM APPLICATION OF CHAPTER 11 TRUSTEE AND HIS COUNSEL, PAUL HASTINGS LLP, FOR REIMBURSEMENT OF EXPENSES FOR PERIOD FROM JULY 8, 2022 THROUGH OCTOBER 31, 2022
Pursuant to sections 105(a), 328, 330, and 331 of title 11 of the United States Code (the "Bankruptcy Code"), Rule 2016 of the Federal Rules of Bankruptcy Procedure (the "Bankruptcy Rules"), and Rule 2016-1 of the Local Rules of Bankruptcy Practice and Procedure of the United States Bankruptcy Court for the District of Connecticut (the "Local Rules"), Luc A. Despins, in his capacity as the chapter 11 trustee (the "Trustee") appointed in the chapter 11 case (the "Chapter 11 Case") of Ho Wan Kwok (the "Individual Debtor"), and his counsel, Paul Hastings LLP ("Paul Hastings"), hereby file this *First Interim Application of Chapter 11 Trustee and his Counsel, Paul Hastings LLP, for Reimbursement of Expenses for the Period from July 8, 2022 through October, 2022* (the "Application"). By this Application, the Trustee and Paul Hastings request interim allowance and reimbursement of the actual and necessary expenses incurred by the Trustee and Paul Hastings during the period from July 8, 2022 through and including October
1 The Debtors in these chapter 11 cases are Ho Wan Kwok (also known as Guo Wengui, Miles Guo, and Miles Kwok, as well as numerous other aliases) (last four digits of tax identification number: 9595), Genever Holdings LLC (last four digits of tax identification number: 8202) and Genever Holdings Corporation. The mailing address for the Trustee, Genever Holdings LLC, and the Genever Holdings Corporation is Paul Hastings LLP, 200 Park Avenue, New York, NY 10166 c/o Luc A. Despins, as Trustee for the Estate of Ho Wan Kwok (solely for purposes of notices and communications).
31, 2022 (the "Reimbursement Period") in the Chapter 11 Case. 2 In support of this Application, the Trustee and Paul Hastings respectfully state as follows:
1. At this time, there are only very limited funds in the Individual Debtor's estate namely \$117,124.89 as of February 1, 2023. For that reason, Paul Hastings is not seeking allowance or payment of any of its professional fees at this time, but, instead, it will wait to do so until after additional funds have been recovered by the estate. However, since the Trustee's appointment on July 8, 2022 and Paul Hastings' retention (effective as of the same date), the Trustee and Paul Hastings have been required to incur and pay various expenses in connection with the Individual Debtor's Chapter 11 Case, including expenses related to computer research, reproduction, mailing, service of documents, discovery, and travel, all as further detailed in this Application.3 These expenses were necessary for the Trustee to conduct his investigation into the Individual Debtor's financial affairs, which investigation, as the Court is well aware, remains ongoing at this time.
2. Because all of the expenses incurred to date (other than "in-house" reproduction charges) required Paul Hastings to go "out of pocket," the Trustee and Paul Hastings now file this Application seeking reimbursement of \$63,631.75 of expenses incurred during the period from July 8, 2022 through October 31, 2022. The Trustee and Paul Hastings respectfully submit that these expenses were incurred to protect, preserve, and maximize value for the Individual Debtor's estate and his creditors. In light of the nature and complexity of the Chapter 11 Case,
2 At this time, no interim compensation procedures have been approved by the Court, and, accordingly, the only means for the Trustee and Paul Hastings to seek reimbursement of their expenses is to file this Application. For the avoidance of doubt, neither the Trustee nor Paul Hastings have received any reimbursement from the Individual Debtor's estate for the expenses detailed in this Application.
3 For the avoidance of doubt, the Trustee and Paul Hastings reserve all their rights to seek allowance and payment of their professional fees.
the Trustee and Paul Hastings submit that the requested expenses are reasonable under applicable standards. Accordingly, the Trustee and Paul Hastings respectfully request that the Court grant the Application and allow reimbursement of the requested expenses. JURISDICTION, VENUE, BASES FOR RELIEF, AND COMPLIANCE
3. 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). 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.
4. The legal predicates for the relief requested herein are Bankruptcy Code §§ 328, 330, and 331, Bankruptcy Rule 2016, and Local Rule 2016-1. The Trustee and Paul Hastings consent to this Court's authority to enter final orders on this matter.
5. The Trustee and Paul Hastings do not believe that *Appendix B of 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* ("Appendix B") applies to this Application because (a) this Application does not request compensation for services rendered and (b) Appendix B only applies if the debtor's petition lists \$50 million or more in assets and \$50 million or more in liabilities, which the Debtors' petitions do not. Nevertheless, the Trustee and Paul Hastings intend to make a reasonable effort to comply with Appendix B in connection with the interim and final fee applications to be filed in the Chapter 11 Case, but reserve all rights as to their relevance and substantive legal effect in connection with the Application or any application for compensation in the Chapter 11 Case.
6. The Trustee and Paul Hastings believe that this Application, together with the attachments hereto, substantially complies with the Bankruptcy Rules and Local Rule 2016-1. To the extent necessary, Paul Hastings requests a waiver of any requirements not met by this Application.
- 7. Attached and incorporated herein by reference are the following Exhibits: - Exhibit A contains a summary of the expense reimbursements requested by category. - Exhibit B contains the monthly statements of Paul Hastings with an itemization of the expenses incurred during the Reimbursement Period. - Exhibit C contains the Proposed Order.
8. On February 15, 2022 (the "Petition Date"), the Individual Debtor filed with the Court a voluntary petition for relief under chapter 11 of the Bankruptcy Code.
9. On March 21, 2022, the United States Trustee appointed an Official Committee of Unsecured Creditors ("Committee") in the Chapter 11 Case. No examiner has been appointed in the Chapter 11 Cases.
10. 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 Chapter 11 Case of Ho Wan Kwok. 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 the Trustee in the Chapter 11 Case of Ho Wan Kwok.
11. The Court authorized Paul Hastings' retention as attorneys for the Trustee pursuant to the *Order Authorizing and Approving the Retention and Employment of Paul Hastings LLP as Counsel to Chapter 11 Trustee, effective as of July 8, 2022* [Docket No. 668] (the "Retention Order"), entered on August 2, 2022. The Retention Order authorizes Paul
Hastings 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.
12. In light of the Trustee's ongoing investigation into the Individual Debtor's assets and his financial affairs, the Trustee is unable at this time to predict when he will be in a position to file a plan and disclosure statement. All quarterly fees have been paid to the United States Trustee, and all monthly operating reports have been filed.
13. As of February 1, 2023, the amount of cash on deposit in the Trustee's account is approximately \$117,124.89, all of which is unencumbered. Other than fees and expenses incurred by professionals, the Trustee is not aware of accrued unpaid administrative expenses at this time.
14. On October 11, 2022, Genever (BVI) filed a voluntary petition for relief under chapter 11 of the Bankruptcy Code with this Court.
15. No trustee or official committee of unsecured creditors has been appointed in Genever (BVI)'s chapter 11 case.
16. October 14, 2022, the Court entered an order granting joint administration of the Individual Debtor's chapter 11 case and Genever (BVI)'s chapter 11 case [Docket No. 970].
17. On January 24, 2023, the Court granted Genever (BVI)'s application to retain Paul Hastings as counsel to Genever (BVI) in its chapter 11 case, effective as of its petition date, i.e., October 11, 2022 [Docket No. 1376].
18. On October 12, 2020, Genever (US) filed a voluntary petition for relief under chapter 11 of title 11 of the United States Code in the United States Bankruptcy Court for the Southern District of New York (the "SDNY Bankruptcy Court"), thereby commencing case number 20-12411 (JLG) (the "SDNY Bankruptcy Case").
19. On November 3, 2022, the SDNY Bankruptcy Court entered an order [Docket No. 225 in Case No. 22-50592] transferring the venue of the SDNY Bankruptcy Case to this Court, which assigned it Case Number 22-50592.
20. On November 21, 2022, the Court entered an order granting joint administration of the Genever (US) Debtor's chapter 11 case with the jointly administered cases of the Individual Debtor and the Genever (BVI) Debtor's chapter 11 case [Docket No. 1141].
21. On January 24, 2023, the Court granted Genever (US)'s application to retain Paul Hastings as counsel to Genever (US) in its chapter 11 case, effective as of the order transferring venue of the SDNY Bankruptcy Case to this Court, i.e., November 3, 2022 [Docket No. 1376].
22. By this Application, the Trustee and Paul Hastings request allowance and reimbursement of all expenses incurred (in the amount of \$63,631.75) in connection with services rendered by, for, or on behalf of the Trustee and Paul Hastings in the Chapter 11 Case during the Reimbursement Period. The Trustee has approved the amounts requested by Paul Hastings in each of the monthly expense statements attached hereto. All services in connection with the requested expenses were performed by, for, or on behalf of the Trustee.
23. To date, the Trustee and Paul Hastings have not applied for compensation for any services provided in the Chapter 11 Case. Neither has the Trustee or Paul Hastings received any payment or promise of payment from any source for services rendered during the Reimbursement Period. There is no agreement or understanding between the Trustee and/or Paul Hastings and any other person other than the attorneys, employees, and staff of Paul Hastings, for the sharing of compensation to be received for services rendered in the Chapter 11 Case.
24. Paul Hastings maintains computerized records, in the form of monthly statements. For this Application, Paul Hastings' monthly statements are limited to expenses incurred and thus vary in form from that regularly used by Paul Hastings to bill its clients for services rendered. Attached hereto as Exhibit B are true and correct copies of the monthly statements of Paul Hastings for expenses incurred during the Reimbursement Period.
25. 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).
26. Under section 330 of the Bankruptcy Code, a bankruptcy court may award to a professional "reasonable compensation for actual, necessary services" rendered by the professional, plus "reimbursement for actual, necessary expenses." 11 U.S.C. § 330(a)(1).
27. As set forth in Exhibit A hereto, the Trustee and Paul Hastings incurred and disbursed \$63,631.75 as expenses in providing professional services during the Reimbursement Period. These expenses include approximately \$34,000 for online legal research (i.e., LEXIS and Westlaw). Because Paul Hastings believes that online legal research (e.g., LEXIS and Westlaw) is far more cost-efficient than manual research using hard-bound volumes, Paul Hastings encourages computerized legal research even though it is not a profit center for Paul Hastings. To be clear, Paul Hastings does not charge a mark-up on the LEXIS and Westlaw charges, but merely passes on the costs of such third-party services. Moreover, as it relates to outside professional services, mailing, and other service-related expenses, the Trustee and Paul Hastings are merely passing on the costs of such third-party services, without any mark-up.4
- 28. Moreover, other necessary expenses included: - \$6,139.96 for UPS/courier service, including, most notably, service of the Rule 2004 motions on the potential targets of the Trustee's investigation, as well as pleadings required to be served in hard copy format; - \$4,583.70 for process servers (e.g., Metro Attorney Service Inc.) to serve the subpoenas issued pursuant to the Rule 2004 orders entered by this court; - \$3,328.32 for document reproductions, namely \$2,584.32 for b/w reproductions (at 8 cents per page) and \$744.00 for color reproductions (at 20 cents per page); - \$2,679.19 for corporate document retrieval services (i.e., United Corporate Service and Corp2000) with respect to various Kwok-related entities; and - \$1,547.40 for certain limited outside professional services, such as translation services (i.e., Divergent Language Solutions) and services to maintain the Relativity data base for documents produced in response to the Trustee's document requests (i.e., UnitedLex). - 29. The time constraints imposed by the circumstances of the matters handled by Paul
Hastings during the Reimbursement Period required its attorneys and other employees, at times, to devote substantial time during the evenings and on weekends to perform legal services on behalf of the Trustee. These extraordinary services were essential to meet deadlines, timely respond to inquiries on a daily basis, and satisfy the Trustee's needs and demands. Attorneys and other Paul Hastings employees who worked late in the evenings or on weekends were reimbursed for their reasonable meal and transportation costs in accordance with firm policy.
4 Documentation of these expenses will be made available to the Court upon request. Case 22-50073 Doc 1495 Filed 03/01/23 Entered 03/01/23 21:31:23 Page 10 of 111
Paul Hastings' regular practice is not to include components for those charges in overhead when establishing billing rates, but rather to charge its clients for these and all other out-of-pocket disbursements incurred during the regular course of the provision of legal services.
30. Moreover, in accordance with Appendix D (Guidelines for Compensation and Expense Reimbursement of Professionals) to the Local Bankruptcy Rule, reproduction charges have been capped at 20 cents per page. 5
31. The expenses requested herein are customarily charged to non-bankruptcy clients of Paul Hastings. Additionally, the expenses incurred by Paul Hastings to third parties are limited to the actual amounts billed to, or paid by, Paul Hastings on behalf of the estates.
32. Further, Paul Hastings believes the rates for charges incurred are the market rates that the majority of law firms charge clients for such services. In addition, Paul Hastings believes that such charges are in accordance with the American Bar Association's ("ABA") guidelines, as set forth in the ABA's Statement of Principles, dated January 12, 1995, regarding billing for disbursements and other charges.
33. The expenses incurred in providing professional services in the Chapter 11 Case were necessary, economical, and justified under the circumstances.
34. To the extent that time or disbursement charges for services rendered or disbursements incurred relate to the Reimbursement Period, but are not included in this Application, or the Trustee and Paul Hastings have for any other reason not sought compensation or reimbursement with respect to such services or expenses, the Trustee and Paul Hastings reserve the right to request compensation for such services and reimbursement of such expenses
5 Generally, Paul Hastings charges 8 cents per page for black-and-white reproductions and 50 cents per page for color reproductions. However, in accordance with Appendix D to the Local Rules, Paul Hastings has reduced the charge for color reproductions to 20 cents per page. Case 22-50073 Doc 1495 Filed 03/01/23 Entered 03/01/23 21:31:23 Page 11 of 111
in a supplemental or future application. Also, the Trustee and Paul Hastings do not waive, and expressly reserve, their right to respond to any objections regarding this Application and the amounts sought for services and expenses in the Chapter 11 Cases.
35. No previous request for the relief sought herein has been made to this Court or any other court.
36. Notice of this Motion has been given to the United States Trustee, the Individual Debtor, the Committee, and, by electronic filing utilizing the Court's electronic filing ("CM/ECF") system, to all appearing parties who utilize the CM/ECF system.
[Remainder of page intentionally left blank.] Case 22-50073 Doc 1495 Filed 03/01/23 Entered 03/01/23 21:31:23 Page 12 of 111
WHEREFORE, the Trustee and Paul Hastings respectfully request entry of an order,
substantially in the form attached hereto as Exhibit C, (i) allowing reimbursement of \$63,631.75, representing 100% of the actual and necessary expenses incurred during the Reimbursement Period, (ii) allowing such reimbursement of actual and necessary expenses incurred without prejudice to Paul Hastings' right to seek compensation for services rendered and further reimbursement for expenses incurred, and (iii) granting Paul Hastings such other and further relief as is just.
