157 and 1334. Venue is proper pursuant to 28 U.S.C. 1408 and 1409.
2. This is a core proceeding pursuant to 28 U.S.C. 157(b).
3. The bases for the relief requested herein are Federal Rule of Bankruptcy
Procedure 9006(c)(1) and Local Rule of Bankruptcy Procedure 9006-1(e).
BACKGROUND
4. As set forth in greater detail in Mr. and Mrs. Woudstra's Joinder Motion, a true
and correct copy of which is attached hereto as Exhibit l, Mr. Woudstra was injured in a
Collision
2
on or about October 7, 2010, and Mrs. Woudstra has suffered a loss of consortium as a
result of the Collision. The Collision was, upon information and belief, caused by an employee
of Allied Systems, Ltd. ("Allied Ltd."), who was driving a truck owned by Allied Ltd. at the time
of the Collision.
5. Upon information and belief, at the time of the Collision, the Debtors had
insurance policies in place which provided coverage for the injuries and damage suffered by Mr.
and Mrs. Woudstra as a result of the Collision.
6. Norman Fredrick Wessels, Joyce Elaine Wessels, and Gladys Ann Walker filed a
motion for stay relief (the "Stay Relief Motion") [Docket No. 425] on September 11, 2012, the
hearing for which is currently scheduled for September 28, 2012 at 11:00 a.m. ET and the
objection deadline for all parties other than the Debtors was set for September 21, 2012 at 4:00
p.m. ET. The Debtors' deadline to object to the Stay Relief Motion is September 25, 2012 at
4:00p.m. ET.
7. The Stay Relief Motion is premised on the same Collision and substantially
similar underlying facts to those which form the basis for Mr. and Mrs. Woudstra' s request for
2
Capitalized terms not otherwise defmed herein shall have the meaning ascribed to them in the Joinder Motion.
5719960/
2
I
relief from the automatic stay in their Joinder Motion.
BASIS FOR THE RELIEF REQUESTED
8. Federal Rule of Bankruptcy Procedure 9006(c)(l) provides that, with certain
inapplicable exceptions, "when an act is required or allowed to be done at or within a specified
time by these rules or by a notice given thereunder or by order of the court, the court for cause
shown may in its discretion with or without motion or notice order the period reduced."
Additionally, Del. Bankr. L.R. 9006-l(e), titled "Shortened Notice," provides "No motion will
be scheduled on less notice than required by these Local Rules or the Fed. R. Bankr. P. except by
order of the Court, on written motion (served on all interested parties) specifying the exigencies
justifying shortened notice. The Court will rule on such motion promptly without need for a
hearing."
9. Mr. and Mrs. Woudstra respectfully submit that shortening the notice and
expediting the hearing with respect to their Joinder Motion is appropriate and will maximize
judicial economy without sacrificing the rights or interests of any of the parties in interest. As of
the time this Motion to Shorten was filed, no objections were filed against the Stay Relief
Motion, though the deadline to file any such objections has passed for all parties other than the
Debtors. As indicated above, Mr. and Mrs. Woudstra's Joinder Motion relates to the same
parties at issue in the Stay Relief Motion, the same underlying incident (the Collision), and will
be served upon the same parties who received the Stay Relief Motion.
10. Accordingly, in light of the above, Mr. and Mrs. Woudstra respectfully request
that the deadline to object to the Joinder Motion be set for September 25, 2012 at 4:00 p.m.
ET, consistent with the current objection deadline for the Debtors regarding the Stay Relief
Motion, and that the Joinder Motion be heard on September 28, 2012 at 11:00 a.m. ET along
5719960/
3
with the Stay Relief Motion.
NOTICE TO BE PROVIDED
11. While Mr. and Mrs. Woudstra respectfully submit that the relief they seek would
result in the greatest judicial economy and the least potential sacrifice for parties in interest if
they are awarded expedited consideration, Mr. and Mrs. Woudstra recognizes the need to provide
as much notice as possible in order to satisfy other interested parties' due process rights.
Accordingly, contemporaneously with this filing, Mr. and Mrs. Woudstra are providing a copy of
the Joinder Motion to (i) counsel to the Debtors, (ii) the Office of the United States Trustee for
the District of Delaware, and (iii) counsel to the Official Committee ofUnsecured Creditors.

WHEREFORE, Mr. and Mrs. Woudstra respectfully request entry of an Order in the form
attached hereto: (i) granting the Motion to Shorten to consider the relief requested in the Joinder
Motion on an expedited basis; (ii) setting the deadline to object to the Joinder Motion at
September 25, 2012 at 4:00 p.m. ET; (iii) scheduling the hearing on the Joinder Motion on
September 28, 2012 at 11:00 a.m. ET; and (iv) granting to Mr. and Mrs. Woudstra such other
and further relief as the Court deems just and proper.

5720909/
1334. Venue is proper pursuant to 28 U.S.C. 1408 and 1409.
2. This is a core proceeding pursuant to 28 U.S.C. 157(b).
3. The bases for the relief requested herein are 11 U.S.C. 362(d) and Rules
4001(a)(l), 4001(a)(3) and 9014 ofthe Federal Rules ofBankruptcy Procedure.
BACKGROUND
4. On or about October 7, 2010, at approximately 4:28p.m., Mr. Woudstra was in a
line of six vehicles stopped in a construction zone on Iowa Highway 75 facing north, in the
County of Plymouth, State of Iowa. Mr. Woudstra had halted his vehicle - a 2001 Chevrolet
Impala - in order to await a pilot car to escort him through the construction zone.
5. At the same approximate time and place, David Allen Anderson ("Defendant
Anderson") was driving a 2007 Sterling Acterra Semi, Georgia license plate IC56Y7 (the "Semi
Truck"), in a northern direction on Iowa Highway 75, in the County of Plymouth, State of Iowa.
Defendant Anderson failed to observe the vehicles stopped at the construction zone, failed to
stop a clear distance away from the vehicles, and drove into the sixth and final stopped vehicle,
causing a chain reaction of vehicle collisions which injured nine (9) individuals, including Mr.
Woudstra (this event is hereafter referred to as the "Collision"). A redacted copy of the police
report detailing the Collision (the "Police Report") is attached hereto as Exhibit A.
6. Upon information and belief, debtor Allied Systems, Ltd. ("Allied Ltd.") owned
the Semi Truck at the time of the Collision. See Exhibit A. Specifically, on the second page of
the Police Report, which is labeled "Page 1," in the description of Unit 001, the Police Report
identifies Defendant Anderson as the driver of the Semi Truck, and identifies "Allied Systems
Ltd." as the owner of the Semi Truck.
7. As a result of the Collision, Mr. Woudstra suffered a large head laceration, a
5720909/
2
fractured right wrist, a fractured right elbow, five broken ribs on his left side, a severely fractured
humerus, numerous smaller cuts, abrasions, and brusies, and his right ear was cut in half
horizontally.
8. Mrs. Woudstra has suffered a loss of consortium as a result of the effects of the
Collision on Mr. Woudstra?
9. Upon information and belief, at the time of the Collision, the Debtors had
insurance policies in place which provided coverage for the injuries and/or damage suffered by
Mr. and Mrs. Woudstra as a result of the Collision. Indeed, the insurance company and policy
number on the insurance policy provided by the Debtors matches the insurance company and
policy number provided for the Semi Truck in the Police Report. A copy of the cover page of
the insurance policy provided by the Debtors is attached hereto as Exhibit B. Debtor Allied
Systems Holdings, Inc. ("Allied Holding") is listed as the named insured on the insurance policy.
10. On May 17, 2012, involuntary petitions were filed against Allied Holding and
Allied Ltd. in the United States Bankruptcy Court for the District of Delaware. On June 10,
2012 (the "Petition Date"), certain affiliates of Allied Holding and Allied Ltd. filed voluntary
petitions for relief under chapter 11 of the Bankruptcy Code. An order directing joint
administration ofthe Debtors' cases under case number 12-11564 (CSS) was entered on June 11,
2012 [Docket No. 89].
2
For the avoidance of any doubt, the arguments set forth in the Relief From Stay Motion regarding jurisdiction
under 28 U.S.C. 157(b)(5) for personal injury claims apply to claims for loss of consortium. See, e.g., Estate of
Mezvinsky v. Roche Holding AG (In re Shubert), 157 F. Supp.2d 542, 547 n.6 (E.D. Pa. 2001) (remarking that case
comprised of, inter alia, a claim for loss of consortium, would likely "qualify as a personal injury tort which under
157(b)(5) must be tried in the district court."); see also In re Pac. Gas & Elec. Co., 279 B.R. 561, 563 n.l (Bankr.
N.D. Cal. 2002) (disagreeing with the argument that claims relating to loss of consortium were not personal injury
claims); In re Todd Shipyards Corp., 92 B.R. 600, 604 (Bankr. D.N.J. 1988) (noting that, were the automatic stay to
remain in effect, "the actual trial of this personal injury tort claim"- which included a claim by an alleged slip and
fall victim's wife for loss of consortium - "cannot take place in the bankruptcy court" and citing 28 U.S.C.
157(b)(5) in support ofthis observation).
5720909/
3
RELIEF REQUESTED
11. By this Motion, Mr. and Mrs. Woudstra seek relief from the automatic stay to
pursue claims (the "Claims") arising in and from the Collision against the Debtors to recover
from the Debtors, including proceeds from any applicable insurance policy(ies ), and any other
potentially responsible third parties, including Defendant Anderson, in a non-bankruptcy forum
of competent jurisdiction.
ARGUMENT
12. Mr. Woudstra and Mrs. Woudstra, parties injured in and affected by the Collision,
seek relief from the automatic stay pursuant to 11 U.S.C. 362(d)(l) to pursue their claims
against the relevant Debtor(s), third-party defendant David Allen Anderson, and the Debtors'
insurance company, and, in support of this relief, join in and adopt the arguments made in the
Stay Relief Motion.
13. If stay relief is appropriate for the Stay Movants, fairness and judicial economy
dictate that it should also be granted to Mr. and Mrs. Woudstra to pursue relief for the injuries
and damages they suffered as a result of the Collision, as their claims against the Debtors arise
from the same acts, transactions and occurrences as those set forth in the Stay Relief Motion.
[The remainder of this page has intentionally been left blank.]
5720909/
4
WHEREFORE, Mr. and Mrs. Woudstra join in and adopt the arguments made in the
Stay Relief Motion and respectfully request that this Court enter an Order in the form attached
hereto (i) granting the Mr. and Mrs. Woudstra's Motion for relief from the automatic stay to
liquidate the Claims against the Debtors and any other potentially responsible parties in a non-
bankruptcy forum of competent jurisdiction and, if successful, to recover from the Debtors and
any applicable insurance coverage, (ii) waiving the stay of the order provided under Fed. R.
Bankr. P. 4001(a)(3), and (iii) granting to Mr. and Mrs. Woudstra such other and further relief as
this Court may deem just and proper.
