Marty - here is a letter.
IN THE UNITED STATES BANKRUPTCY COURT
FOR THE DISTRICT OF DELAWARE
Honorable Judge Mary Walrath
824 North Market Street
3rd Floor
Wilmington, DE 19801
RE: CASE NO. 08-12229 - DOCKET NO. 12237
OBJECTION OF (Your Name) TO THE MOTION
OF JPMORGAN CHASE BANK, N.A. FOR
ENFORCEMENT OF THE FINDINGS OF FACT,
CONCLUSIONS OF LAW, AND ORDER
CONFIRMING THE SEVENTH AMENDED
JOINT PLAN OF AFFILIATED DEBTORS
PURSUANT TO CHAPTER 11 OF THE
UNITED STATES BANKRUPTCY CODE
Dear Honorable Judge Mary Walrath:
I, (Your Name) am a Dime LTW ("LTW") Holder
who did not "opt in" to the Stipulation and
Agreement signed by WMI and Counsel
representing all LTW Holders. I have a valid
lien against and interest in 85 % net of the
Anchor Litigation Award - which was
promised/given to the LTW Holders upon
the issuance of the LTWs.
On May 18, 2015 the US Court of Federal
Claims awarded the Anchor Savings
Bank Litigation and $419,645,910.91 to JPMC.
An additional Tax Gross-Up of
$118,969,673.71 was awarded on Aug 31, 2015 -
for a total of $538,615,584.62.
In the Opinion and Order of the US Court of
Federal Claims for the Anchor
Savings Bank Litigation - dated Aug 31, 2015 -
it states on Page 6 that the LTWs
are " ownership interests in the Anchor Litigation...."
and " were actively traded on the NASDAQ market
on the day JPM acquired them. "
" As plaintiff points out, these ownership interests
in the Anchor litigation were actively traded on the
NASDAQ market on the day that JPMC acquired them. "
The US Court of Federal Claims' Opinions never
do state or agree that the Anchor Savings Bank
Litigation was transferred to JPMC by way of the
363 Sale/GSA. In its May 18, 2015 Opinion and
Order - Page 16, 2 (a) - it states as follows:
" For the reasons explained below, the court holds
that the P&A Agreement clearly and unambiguously
conveyed the Anchor judgment to JPMC. "
WMI's claim that it owned the Anchor Savings Bank
Litigation while in bankruptcy was erroneous. The
PAA was signed by the FDIC and JPMC on
Sept 25, 2008 - WMI's date of bankruptcy was
Sept 26, 2008. The Bankruptcy Court was therefore
not the correct jurisdiction in which to adjudicate
the Claims of the LTW Holders.
In addition, in the Feb 23, 2012 Order approving
WMI's POR, it states - on PG 69, Para. 29 - as follows:
" Notwithstanding anything contained in the Global
Settlement Agreement or the Plan to the contrary,
nothing is intended to release, nor shall it have the
effect of releasing (a).........the JPMC Releasees
(as defined in the Global Settlement Agreement)..
.........and (b) any Releasee (as defined in the Global
Settlement Agreement) or any Person, including,
without limitation, the United States of America,
from any claims and causes of action asserted
or that could be asserted in..............the Anchor
Litigation............" and " .........nothing in the Global
Settlement Agreement, the Plan, or this Order
shall waive, release, acquit or discharge........the
rights and obligations of JPMC.........pursuant to
the Purchase and Assumption Agreement........"
JPMC is erroneously seeking to limit the rights
of the LTW Holders to file a Lawsuit/Claims
against JPMC to the jurisdiction of the United States
Bankruptcy Court for the District of Delaware - for the
purpose of eradicating a Lawsuit by LTW Holders
against JPMC in the S. Ohio District Court -
Case No. 2:16-cv-00281.
For the foregoing reasons set out in my Objection
I respectfully request that the Court deny JPMC's Motion.
Respectfully,
(Your Name)___________ Date: May 17, 2016
