on Exhibit B. Thus, the Trust requests the entry of an order, substantially in the form of Exhibit A, disallowing the claims set forth in the first column of Exhibit B and preserving the surviving claim set forth in the second column of Exhibit B.2 Pursuant to Rule 3007(e)(1) of the Federal Rules of Bankruptcy Procedure, Claimants receiving this Sixty-Sixth Omnibus Objection should locate their names and claims in the objection and the attached exhibits. In support of the Sixty-Sixth Omnibus Objection, the Trust respectfully represents as follows: Jurisdiction 1. The Court has subject matter jurisdiction to consider and determine the Sixty-
Sixth Omnibus Objection pursuant to Paragraph 41(a) of the Order Confirming First Amended Joint Plan Of Collins & Aikman Corporation And Its Debtor Subsidiaries (the Order). 2. 3. Venue is proper before the Court pursuant to 28 U.S.C. 1408 and 1409. The statutory basis for the relief requested by the Sixty-Sixth Omnibus Objection
is section 502 of the Bankruptcy Code, 11 U.S.C. 101-1330 and Rule 3007 of the Federal Rules of Bankruptcy Procedure. Background 4. On July 9, 2007, Debtors filed the First Amended Joint Plan of Collins & Aikman
Corporation and Its Debtor Subsidiaries (the Plan). 5. On July 18, 2007, the Court entered the Order confirming the Plan. The Order
provided the mechanism by which claimants would submit claims and the process by which the Trusts would File, settle, compromise, withdraw or litigate to judgment objections to Claims. (Order at 38.) Thus, consistent with the Orders directive regarding disposition of the Claims,
The Sixty-Sixth Omnibus Objection is without prejudice to the Trusts ability to otherwise object to the Surviving Claims set forth in Exhibit B.
as well as the subsequent order of this Court extending the Claims Objection Bar Date, this Sixty-Sixth Omnibus Objection is timely filed. (Order at 49.) Objection to Duplicate Claims Filed Against Multiple Debtors 6. The Debtors and the Trust are in the process of reviewing and evaluating the
claims that have been filed. In that process, many claims have been identified as seeking payment for an identical debt for which a claim was already filed. Specifically, the claims identified on Exhibit B as the Claim to Survive were filed for the same debt as those corresponding claims identified as the Claim to be Disallowed. Because the claims seek recovery of money for the same debt purportedly owing to the claimant by a debtor, the claims in the first column of Exhibit B should be disallowed and expunged in order to prevent double recoveries. Notice 7. Pursuant to Article VII.A.1 of the Plan, the Sixty-Sixth Omnibus Objection (with
exhibits) and a notice thereof will be served upon the Holders of such Claims and the United States Trustee.3 A copy of the Sixty-Sixth Omnibus Objection has also been filed with the CM/ECF system which will serve a copy of this pleading on all attorneys registered to receive such filings. 8. No prior request for the relief sought in the Sixty-Sixth Omnibus Objection has
been made to this or any other Court.
Capitalized terms used in this paragraph not otherwise defined herein shall have the meanings set forth in the Plan and the Order.
WHEREFORE, the Trust respectfully requests entry of an order, substantially in the form attached hereto as Exhibit A, (a) disallowing the claims identified in the first column of Exhibit B as the Claim to Be Disallowed because they seek recovery of the same debt allegedly owing for the claim set forth in the second column of Exhibit B; and (b) granting such other and further relief as is just and proper.
