• Doc 2274 ORDER REGARDING MOTION TO COMPEL COMPLIANCE: On January 19, 2023, Mr. Luc A. Despins, in his capacity as Chapter 11 trustee (the ‘Trustee’) for the estate of Mr. Ho Wan Kwok, filed the Motion to Compel Compliance with Preliminary Injunction and Quash Individual Debtor’s Claims Objections (the ‘Motion’). (Main Case ECF No. 1345.) That same day, the Trustee filed a motion analogous to the Motion (the ‘Adversary Motion,’ and, together with the Motion, collectively, the ‘Motions’) insofar as it sought to compel compliance with the preliminary injunction in the adversary proceeding Pac. All. Asia Opportunity Fund L.P. v. Kwok (In re Kwok), Case No. 22-50073 (JAM), Adv. P. No. 22-05032 (JAM) (Bankr. D. Conn. Jan. 13, 2023) (hereinafter, the ‘Adversary Proceeding’) in the Adversary Proceeding. (Adv. ECF No. 142.) Objections and replies were filed. A hearing on the Motions was held on January 26, 2023. On January 27, 2023,the Court granted the relief sought by the Motion as it related to the Mr. Kwok’s objections to claims. (Main Case ECF No. 1399.)

• Doc 2237 ORDER SUSTAINING IN PART OBJECTION TO PROPOSED SUPPLEMENTAL ORDER: On July 11, 2023 and July 18, 2023, hearings were held on, respectively, the Motion Regarding Settlement with Assignee of HCHK Entities under New York Court Assignment Proceedings (the “9019 Motion”) (Main Case ECF No. 1936; Adv. ECF No. 25) and a revised proposed order (the “Revised Proposed Order”) regarding the 9019 Motion (Main Case ECF No. 2004; Adv. ECF No. 55), both filed by Mr. Luc A. Despins, in his capacity as Chapter 11 trustee (the “Trustee”) for the estate of Mr. Ho Wan Kwok. G-Club Operations LLC (“G-Club”) filed objections to the 9019 Motion and the Revised Proposed Order in the lead bankruptcy case but not in the adversary proceeding. (Main Case ECF Nos. 1977, 2007.) On July 28, 2023, the Court entered an order (the “9019 Order”) granting the 9019 Motion and approving thesettlement between the Trustee and the Assignee. (Main Case ECF No. 2038; Adv. ECF No. 70.) The 9019 Order responded to G-Club’s only remaining objection to the 9019 Motion (See Main Case ECF No. 2030, at 128:5–148:8) by setting a briefing schedule whereby the Trustee and G-Club would contest whether G-Club had waived any and all rights regarding its documents in the possession of the assignee for the benefit of creditors (the “Assignee”). (Main Case ECF No. 2038 ¶ 6; Adv. ECF No. 70 ¶ 6.) The Trustee timely filed a memorandum (the “Memo”) on August 11, 2023, but only in the adversary proceeding. (Adv. ECF No. 87.) G-Club filed no timely response. On September 26, 2023, the Trustee filed a proposed supplemental order (the “Proposed Supplemental Order”) seeking an order compelling G-Club to produce to the Trustee all documents produced to G-Club by the Assignee and for theAssignee to produce any G-Club documents remaining in his possession to the Trustee. (Adv. ECF No. 130.) Also on September 26, 2023, G-Club objected (the “Objection”) to the Proposed Supplemental Order, asserting that it did not receive notice and service of the Memo because it was only filed in the adversary proceeding. (Main Case ECF No. 2233.) G-Club asked for seven (7) days until October 4, 2023 to respond to the Memo. (Id.) G-Club never filed anything asserting that the Trustee had waived his arguments by failing to file the required briefing. When the Court inquired about this issue during a hearing held on September 19, 2023, counsel for the Trustee represented it was his belief that the Trustee’s counsel was trying to reach out to G-Club to determine the status of the issue. Accordingly, it is hereby

The Motion seeks to extend the Individual Debtor’s time to respond from March 28, 2023 to April 27, 2023 because (i) Zeisler & Zeisler, P.C. (“Z&Z”) is encountering difficulty communicating with the Individual Debtor regarding a response to the Motion for Order to Show Cause Why Debtor, Mei Guo, and HK (USA) Should Not Be Held in Contempt of Court (ECF No. 1453, the “Motion for Order to Show Cause”) because the Individual Debtor is presently incarcerated; (ii) Z&Z needs to coordinate with the Individual Debtor’s criminal counsel, who have yet to be retained; and (iii) the Individual Debtor cannot produce anything while confined.During a Status Conference on March 21, 2023, Luc A. Despins, in his capacity as Chapter 11 trustee (the “Trustee”) of the estate of the Individual Debtor, objected to the Motion on the grounds that (a) the Individual Debtor asserted his fifth amendment rights against self-incrimination in relation to the Trustee’s document requests and the Order Granting in Part Motion to Compel Compliance with Rule 2004 Subpoenas (ECF No. 1353, the “Order Compelling Production”) on or before February 7, 2023, (see ECF No. 1444) and, therefore, has had substantial time to formulate his argument supporting that assertion; (b) the pending criminal proceeding cannot be used to bring these Chapter 11 cases and the Trustee’s ongoing investigation to a halt; and (c) the Individual Debtor can produce documents in his custody and control while confined, e.g., through Z&Z and his other agents and advisors. Afterconsideration of the arguments advanced during the Status Conference, it is hereby

The Motion seeks to continue the hearing for two reasons: (i) Attorneys Henzy and Kindseth cannot attend the presently scheduled March 23, 2023, hearing and (ii) Zeisler & Zeisler, P.C. is encountering difficulty communicating with the Individual Debtor regarding the Motion for Order Removing Trustee filed in accordance with the Court’s Contested Matter Procedure, D. Conn. Bankr. L. R. 9014-1 (ECF No. 1274, the “Motion to Remove Trustee”) because the Individual Debtor is presently incarcerated.

As discussed on the record, the declaration of counsel for Ms. Mei Guo and HK International Funds Investments (USA) Limited, LLC was not, among other things, timely filed (ECF No. 1512) and did not provide the Trustee with adequate time to analyze the declaration prior to the Show Cause hearing scheduled to be held at 1:00 p.m. on March 7, 2023. Due to the fact that the Trustee was not provided with the court ordered time to review any declaration filed, the Trustee argued during the Show Cause hearing about information contained in deposition testimony of Ms. Mei Guo which allegedly demonstrates the failure of Ms. Mei Guo and HK International Funds Investments (USA) Limited, LLC to complywith the Order to Show Cause and the Order Compelling Production (ECF No. 1353).

• Doc 1175 ORDER GRANTING MOTION TO SEAL: On November 21, 2022, Counsel for the Chapter 11 Trustee filed a redacted Statement of the Chapter 11 Trustee with Respect to Debtor’s Social Media Intimidation Campaign (ECF No. 1133, the ‘Redacted Statement,””), an unredacted statement under seal (ECF No. 1136, the “”Unredacted Statement””) and a motion to file an unredacted version under seal (ECF No. 1134, the ‘Motion to Seal””). On November 30, 2022, a hearing was held on the Motion to Seal. For the reasons stated on the record, after conducting an individualized review of the proposed sealed materials as required under Brown v. Maxwell, 929 F.3d 41 (2d Cir. 2019), the Court finds that the release of the sensitive information as defined in the Motion to Seal, which includes personal addresses and allegedly defamatory material about individuals described in the Motion to Seal, outweighs the public’s interest in access to the sensitive information at this time pursuant to 11 U.S.C. §§ 107(b)(2) and 107(c)(1). See In re Purdue Pharma, 632 B.R. 34 (Bankr. S.D.N.Y. 2021), and D. Conn. L. Civ. R. 5(e), made applicable by D. Conn. Bankr. L.R. 1001-1(b), 7007-1, and 9007-1. Furthermore, the relief sought is narrowly tailored and the Redacted Statement has been filed on the docket of this case. Accordingly, it is herebyORDERED: The Motion to Seal is GRANTED and ECF No. 1136 is sealed until further order of the Court. Signed by Judge Julie A. Manning on November 30, 2022.

The Court conducted an individualized review of the proposed sealed materials, as required under Brown v. Maxwell, 929 F.3d 41 (2d Cir. 2019). As ordered during the hearing, the documents identified by the Trustee’s counsel as protected by a Trustee Privilege (the “”Privileged Documents,”” ECF No. 1099, Exs. 2024, 2830, 3438) pursuant to the Consent Order Regarding Control of Attorney-Client Privilege and Work Product Protection Related to Rule 2004 Subpoenaed Documents and Information (“”Privileges Consent Order,”” ECF No. 856) are sealed based upon the assertions of the attorney-client privilege applicable to those documents and also because the Court finds under 11 U.S.C. § 107(b)(1), see In re Fifty-Off Stores, Inc. 213 B.R. 646, 655 (Bankr. W.D. Tex. 1996); see also In re Purdue Pharma, 632 B.R. 34 (Bankr. S.D.N.Y. 2021), and D. Conn. L. Civ. R. 5(e), made applicable by D. Conn. Bankr. L.R. 1001-1(b) and 9077-1, that the potential harm to the Estate from a waiver of the attorney-client privilege relating to a substantial litigation asset of the Estate outweighs the publics interest in disclosure at this time and further that disclosure at this time will negatively impact the Chapter 11 Trustee’s ability to conduct and carry out an investigation of the Debtors assets. The Trustee also identified one of the Privileged Documents as an attorney work product privileged document (the “”Work-Product Exhibit,”” ECF No. 1099, Ex. 38), which, as ordered during the hearing, is sealed as protected by the attorney work product privilege. In addition, one exhibit (the “”Individual Debtors Deposition,”” ECF No. 1110, Ex. 27) was designated by the Individual Debtor as “”highly confidential”” under the Protective Order (ECF No. 923), and the harm of disclosure of the Individual Debtor’s Deposition at this time outweighs the interest of the public to access that exhibit because it will negatively impact the Chapter 11 Trustee’s ability to conduct and carry out the investigation of the Debtors’ assets. Accordingly, as ordered by the Court during the hearing, it is herebyORDERED: The Motion to Seal is GRANTED until further order of the Court; and it is further ORDERED: The Privileged Documents, Work Product Exhibit, and Debtor’s Deposition are sealed until further order of the Court; it is further ORDERED: The Reply may be up to 25 pages in length; and it is furtherORDERED: Portions of the hearing on the Motion for Contempt are sealed for the reasons stated on the record and in accordance with this Order until further order of the Court.

• Doc 1108 ORDER SEALING PORTION OF HEARING: On November 16, 2022, a hearing was held on several matters in the Debtors’ cases. During the hearing, the Chapter 11 Trustee stated on the record that following the Individual Debtor’s recent deposition, the Individual Debtor posted disparaging and inflammatory remarks on social media about the Chapter 11 Trustee, his lawyers, and a creditor and its lawyers, and that the Individual Debtor provided the personal home addresses of the Chapter 11 Trustee, the Chapter 11 Trustee’s former spouse, the Chapter 11 Trustee’s lawyers, and a creditor and its lawyers, and called for people to protest at their individual homes. Pursuant to the D. Conn. L. Civ. R. 5(e), which is incorporated by D. Conn. Bankr. L.R. 1001-1(b) and 9077-1, this Court determined sua sponte to seal the portion of the hearing discussing these sensitive matters and to limit the attendance during the sealed portion of the hearing to the Chapter 11 Trustee, Attorney Barron as counsel to the Chapter 11 Trustee, Attorney Henzy as counsel to the Individual Debtor, and Attorney Claiborn from the Office of the United States Trustee. As stated on the record, the Court was presented with sensitive information presenting serious, potential harm to individuals in this case, which harm the Court finds outweighs the interest in making the sealed portion of the hearing public at this time. Accordingly, it is hereby, ORDERED: The portion of the hearing described in this Order is sealed until further Order of the Court. (RE: 1101 , 1103 ). Signed by Judge Julie A.
