The Objection and Request for Relief


8. By this Motion, the Debtors seek to disallow the Duplicate Claims, the

11 I: ~

Amended Claims, the Wrong Debtor Claims and the Insuffcient Documentation Claims.

68773-002\DOCS_LA:215379.6

Basis for Relief


9. Section 502 of

the Bankuptcy Code, and other applicable non-banptcy

law set forth below, provide the bases for the relief sought in this Second Omnibus Objection.

Section 502(b) states in relevant par that:


(T)he court, after notice and a hearing, shall determine the amount the United States as of the date of the filing of the petition, and shall allow such claim in such amount,
of (a) claim in lawfl curency of

except to the extent that-

(1) such claim is unenforceable against the debtor or

property ofthe debtor, under any agreement or applicable law for a reason other than because such claim is contingent or unmatured
11 U.S.C. 502(b).
10. For the reasons set forth in detail below, each of the Duplicate Claims, the

Amended Claims, and the Insuffcient Documentation claims are unenforceable against the
Debtors under applicable law and should therefore be disallowed and the Wrong Debtor Claims should be modified to reflect the correct Debtor and then should be allowed as modified.
A. The Duplicate Claims
i 1. As provided in section 502(b)(1), a claim that is unenforceable against the

Debtors or their property under applicable law must be disallowed. Under any applicable law, a
claimant is entitled to only one recovery for a claim. Thus, if

there are two proofs of claim fied

i.

against the same debtor covering the same claim, one of those claims must be disallowed. In

order to prevent a double recovery by the claimants who fied the Duplicate Claims listed on
Exhibit A, the Debtors object to the two (2) claims listed in Exhibit A as "Claims to Be Disallowed" because they are the same claims as the claims listed in Exhibit A as the
68773-002\DOCS_LA:215379.6

"Remaining Claims". The Debtors request that each of

the Claims to Be Disallowed be

disallowed. If

the Cour grants this relief, each holder of

Duplicate Claims wil, as set forth on

Exhibit A, retain its Remaining Claim.3


B. The Amended Claims
12. The Debtors object to the forty (40) claims set forth on Exhibit B (under

the column entitled "Claim to Be Disallowed") upon the grounds that each of these initial claims

has been amended or superseded by a subsequently fied proof of claim. In order to prevent a
double recovery by the claimants asserting such initial and amended claims, the Debtors request
that each of

the initial claims set forth on Exhibit B (under the column entitled "Claims to Be
the Cour grants this relief, the claim of each of

Disallowed") be disallowed. If

the holders listed

in the column entitled "Remaining Claim"(as set forth on Exhibit B) will be the surviving claim.4
C. The Wrong Debtor Claims
13. Each of

the four (4) claims listed on Exhibit C attached hereto was fied
the proofs of claim listed on Exhibit C,

against the wrong Debtor. Based upon a review of

including the documentation fied in support thereof, and the Debtors' books and records, the
Debtors could find no basis for a claim against the Debtor against which the claim was fied.
However, it was determined that there is at least a colorable basis of liability for the claim
against one of

the other Debtors. Therefore, the Debtors request that the claims on Exhibit C be

modified to reflect that they were fied only against the Debtor set forth in Exhibit C in the

the claims listed in the column entitled "Remaining Claim" of Exhibit A on any other grounds. Is such an objection is raised, the claimants wil receive separate notice of such. 4 The Debtors reserve their right to object to any of the claims listed in the column entitled "Remaining Claim" of Exhibit B on any other grounds. Is such an objection is raised, the claimants wil receive separate notice of such.
68773-002\DOCS_LA:2 i 5379.6
5

3 The Debtors reserve their right to object to any of

column titled "Correct Debtor". After the Wrong Debtor Claims are modified to reflect the
correct Debtor pary, the Debtors request that the claims be allowed as modified.

D. The Insuffcient Documentation Claims

14. The Debtors object to the eleven (1 1) Insufficient Documentation Claims

set forth on Exhibit D upon the grounds that there is not sufficient documentation attached to the

proofs of claim or that can be found in the Debtors' books and records to support the claims

listed on Exhibit D. Failure to attach supporting documentation to a proof of claim is


.objectionable for two reasons. First, a claimant asserting a claim against a debtor's estate must
allege sufficient facts to support its claim. In re Int'l Wireless Comm. Holdings, Inc., 257 B.R.
739, 742 (Bankr. D. DeL. 2001). Ifa claimant alleges sufficient facts, its claim is afforded

prima
the claim. Id. But where a

facie validity, and the debtor must then offer evidence in rebuttal of

claimant fails to attach sufficient documentation, its claim cannot be afforded prima facie

validity and is subject to disallowance upon objection. See In re Henry, 311 B.R. 813, 817

(Ban. W.D. Wa. 2004) (recognizing that failure to attach documentation "negates the prima
facie validity of a claim"). Because the claimants subject to this objection fied insuffcient

documents in support of their respective claims, their claims cannot be afforded prima facie
validity and should be disallowed.
15. Second, Banptcy Rule 3001(c) requires, in pertinent par, that "when a

claim, or an interest in property of the debtor securing the claim, is based on a writing, the

original or a duplicate shall be fied with the proof of claim." Fed. R. Bankr. Proc. 3007(c); see
also In re MK Lombard Group 1, Lid., 301 B.R. 812, 815 (Bankr. E.D. Pa. 2003) (finding that a

one page proof of claim, indicating "Other" as its basis but failing to provide any explanation or
68773-002\DOCS_LA:2 i 5379.6

attach any documents, was "seriously deficient"). Failure to attach such documentation is

grounds for disallowance. /d. at 819.


16. Notwithstanding the claimants' failure to provide documents supporting

their respective claims, the Debtors have made a good faith effort to locate evidence of any

amounts owing to the claimants set forth on Exhibit D. No such evidence has been located. See
Kuritz Declaration.

17. Accordingly, the Debtors seek entry of an order disallowing the

undocumented claims listed on Exhibit D.


Reservation of Rie:hts
18. The Debtors hereby reserve the right to object in the future to any of

the

claims on any additional ground, and to amend, modify and/or supplement the Second Omnibus
Objection as may be necessary. In addition, the filing of

the Second Omnibus Objection is not

intended to limit the Debtors' ability to fie future objections to any claims that have been or may
subsequently be fied in these cases, or that may be listed on the Debtors' Schedules, on the
grounds set forth herein or any other appropriate grounds. Should the grounds of

the Second

Omnibus Objection be overrled or withdrawr, wholly or in par, the Debtors reserve the right to
object to any of

the claims on any other grounds which the Debtors may discover or deem

appropriate.
i 9. Further, notwithstanding anything contained in this Second Omnibus

Objection or the attached Exhibits A-D nothing herein shall be construed as a waiver of any

rights that the Debtors or the estates may have (a) to bring avoidance actions under the applicable
sections of

the Banptcy Code, including, but not limited to, 11 U.S.C. 547, against the
7
f. i

68773-002\DOCS_LA:2 i 5379.6

~ ,

holders of claims subject to this Second Omnbus Objection, or (b) to exercise their right of
setoff against the holders of such claims relating to such avoidance actions.
Statement of Compliance with DeL. Bankr. L.R. 3007-1
20. In compliance with DeL. Ban. L.R. 3007-1

(e)(i)(E), the Debtors and their

counsel submit that the Second Omnibus Objection complies with DeL. Bankr. L.R. 3007-1.

Request for Entry of Final Judement


21. The Debtors request that the Cour, pursuant to Rule 54(b) of

the Federal

Rules of Civil Procedure, made applicable in a contested matter by Banptcy Rules 7054 and

9014, direct entry of a final judgment with respect to the Second Omnibus Objection as to which relief is entered by any Order on the Second Omnibus Objection.

Notice
22. The Debtors have served the Second Omnibus Objection on: (i) counsel

to the Committee; (ii) the U.S. Trustee; (iii) all parties who have requested notice pursuant to
DeL. Bankr. L.R. 2002- 1; and (iv) the claimants set forth on Exhibits A, ~, , and D whose
claims are the subject of this Second Omnibus Objection. The Debtors submit that notice of

the

Second Omnibus Objection is sufficient under Bankptcy Rule 3007, and the Local Bankptcy
Rules, and that no further or other notice is necessary.

68773-002\DOCS_LA:215379.6

WHEREFORE, for the reasons set forth above, the Debtors request the entry of

an order (i) disallowing the two (2) Duplicate Claims set forth in the colum titled "Claim to Be

Disallowed" on Exhibit A, (ii) disallowing the forth (40) Amended Claims set fort in the
column titled "Claim to Be Disallowed" on Exhibit B; (iii) modifying the four (4) Wrong Debtor

Claims set fort on Exhibit C so that they are reflected as having been fied against the Debtor
shown in the column on Exhibit D entitled "Correct Debtor" and then allowing the claims as
modified; and (v) disallowing the eleven (11) claims with insufficient supporting documentation
set forth on Exhibit D.

Objection Deadline: March 17,2010 at 4:00 p.m. EST Hearing Date: March 24, 2010 at 2:30 p.m. EST

DECLARATION OF JENNFER KURITZ IN SUPPORT OF DEBTORS' SECOND OMNmUS OBJECTION (NON-SUBSTANTIVE) TO CERTAIN (A) DUPLICATE CLAIMS; (B) CLAIMS THAT HAVE BEEN AMENDED AND SUPERSEDED; (C) CLAIMS THAT WERE FILED AGAINST THE WRONG DEBTOR; AND (D) CLAIMS FOR WHICH THERE IS INSUFICIENT DOCUMENTATION
1, Jennifer Kuritz. hereby declare that the following is true to the best of my

knowledge, infonnation and belief:


i. I am the Treasurer for the Debtors and I am responsible for overseeing the

claims review and objection process in these chapter I ) cases (the "Cases"). Except as otherwise
indicated, all statements in this Declaration are based upon my personal knowledge, my review

of the Debtors' books and records, relevant documents and other information prepared or
collected by the Debtors' employees, professionals, or my opinion based on my experience with

the Debtors' operations and tinancial condition. In making my statements based on my review
of the Debtors' books and records, relevant documents and other infomiation prepared or
I The Debtors in these cases. along with the last four digits of each of the Debtors' federal iax identitication number, are: Pacific Energy Resources Ltd. (3442); Petrocal Acquisition Corp. (6249); Pacific Ene.rgy Alaska Holdings.

LLC (tax J.D. # not available); Cameros Acquisiiion Corp. (5866); PacIic Energy Alaska Operating LLC (7021); San Pedro Bay Pipeline Company (JZ34); Cameros Energy, Jnc, (9487); and Gotland Oil, Inc, (5463). The mailing
address for all of the Debtors is 111 W. Ocean Boulevard. Suite J 240, Long Beach, CA 90802,

68773-r)02\D(X:SJA:215383.3

collected by the Debtors' employees and/or professionals, r have relied upon these parties
accurately recording, preparing OJ' collecting such documentation and other information.
2. i make this Declaration in support of the Debtors' Second Omnibus

Objection (Non-Substantive) to Certain (a) Duplicate Claims; (b) Claims That Have Been
Amended and Superseded; (c) Claims That Were Filed Against the Wrong Debtor; and (d)

Claimsfor Which There Is Insuffcient Documentation (the "Second Omnibus Objection"),


have reviewed the Second Omnibus Objection and am, directly or through the Debtors'

personnel, familar with the infomiation contained therein and in the exhibits annexed thereto.
The Debtors maintain books and records (the "Books and Records") which reflect, among other

things, the Debtors' liabilties and respective amounts owed to their creditors and I am familiar
with the Books and Records.
3, If I were called to testify as a witness in this matter, I could and would

competently testify to each of the facts set forth herein based upon my personal knowledge,

review of documents, or opinion, I am authorized to submit this Declaration on behalf of the Debtors. Capitalized terms not otherwise defined herein shall have the meaning ascribed thereto
in the Second Omnibus Objection.

4. Under my supervision, considerable resources and time have been


expended to ensure a high level of diligence in reviewing and reconciling the proofs of claim

fied in these Cases, The claims and the related Books and Records were carefully reviewed and
analyzed by appropriate personnel resulting in the identification of the claims to which
objections are raised in the Second Omnibus Objection.

6877 3-002\DOCS _LA :215 383.3

The Duplicate Claims


5. The Debtors object to the two (2) Duplicate Claims set forth on Exhibit A

to the Second Omnibus Objection because each of these claims is the exact duplicate of the

corresponding remaining claim as set forth on said Exhibit A. The claims in the column on
Exhibit A titled Duplicate Claims should be disallowed.
The Amended Claims
6. The Debtors object to the forty (40) Amended Claims set forth on Exhibit

1l to the Second Omnibus Objection upon the grounds that each of these claims has been

amended and superseded by the subsequently fied claim that is based on the same facts as the

Amended Claim, These subsequently fied claims are shown as the Remaining Claims on said
Exhibit B. The claims in the column on Exhibit B titled Amended Claims should be disallowed.

Wron2 Debtor Claims


7. The Debtors object to the four (4) Wrong Debtor Claims set forth on

Exhibit C to the Second Omnibus Objection upon the grounds that each of these claims was fied
against the wrong Debtor entity_ Based on the careful review of the Books and Records

conducted by personnel under my supervision or by me, i have determined that there is no evidence in the Books and Records that Pacific Energy Resources Ltd. ("PERL") is liable on the

Wrong Debtor Claims. The Books and Records, however, do renect that Pacific Energy Alaska Operating, LLC ("PEAO") is liable on the Wrong Debtor Claims. The Debtors, therefore, are
asking that the Wrong Debtor Claims on Exhibit C be modified to reflect that they are claims

against PEAO rather than against PERL. After the Wrong Debtor Claims are modified to reflect

6877 3-002\DOCS_LA:2 i 53 83.3

the correct Debtor, the Debtors have no objection to the amount.s of the Wrong Debtor Claims

and ask that the Court allow them as modified.

The Insuffcient Documentation Claims


8. As par of the claims review and reconciliation process, i have either

reviewed or supervised a review and analysis of (i) the Books and Records, and (ii) each of the eleven (11) proofs of claim that are set forth on Exhibit D to the Second Omnibus Objection.
Based upon my analysis of this review, I have concluded that each of these claims is not supported by the information in the Books and Records, and fails to include, or attach, sufficient
information or documentation to establish the validity and amount of the alleged claim.

Accordingly, these claims should be disallowed from the Debtors' claims register.
9. For all of the foregoing reasons set forth above, and in the Second

Omnibus Objection, I respectfully request that the Court grant the relief requested in the Second
Omnibus Objection.

Pursuant to 28 U .S.c. i 746, i declare under the penalty of perjury that the foregoing is
true and correct.
