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
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
disallowed. If
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has been amended or superseded by a subsequently fied proof of claim.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
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,
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.

correct Debtor pary, the Debtors request that the claims be allowed as modified.
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
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

Objection as may be necessary. In addition, the filing of
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

the Debtors' operations and tinancial condition. In making my statements based on my review

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