DONALD GIESEKE, MAHNA FAMILY TRUST, AND ORDER THEREON 21 Appellees. 22 23 Appellant Christina Lovato, Chapter 7 Trustee of T M Pankopf PLLC (“Trustee 24 Lovato”), Appellee W. Donald Gieseke, Chapter 7 Trustee for the bankruptcy estate of 25 KATHARINA NANNY BLANCATO (“Trustee Gieseke”), and Appellee Mahna Family 26 Trust dated July 6, 1993, hereby file this Stipulated Motion to Dismiss Appellants T M Pankopf 27 28 PLLC and Billie Line from this bankruptcy appeal. 1 Dockets.Justia.com Case 3:17-cv-00221-LRH Document 20 Filed 07/17/18 Page 2 of 15 In support, Trustee Lovato, Trustee Gieseke, and the Manha Family Trust respectfully 1 2 state as follows: 3 1. On July 8, 2009, Katharina Nanny Blancato (“Blancato”) filed a Chapter 7 4 bankruptcy petition in this District, commencing bankruptcy Case No. 09-52203-gwz (Bankr. 5 6 7 D. Nev.) (the “Blancato Bankruptcy”). After filing the Blancato Bankruptcy Case, Blancato changed her name to Katharina Nanny Bahnsen. 1 8 9 2. As of the date of this filing, the Blancato Bankruptcy remains open, with Trustee Gieseke acting as the duly appointed Chapter 7 Trustee. 10 3. 11 On March 27, 2017, the Bankruptcy Court entered its Order Granting Motion to 12 Sell Real Property Free and Clear of All Liens, Claims, and Interests and to Approve Payment 13 of Sale Related Expenses, authorizing Trustee Gieseke to sell real property located at 2105, 14 2109, 2109 ½, and 2115 Prater Way, Sparks, Nevada APN 032-023-010 (the “Prater Way 15 Property”), which the Bankruptcy Court determined belonged to Blancato’s bankruptcy estate. 16 17 See Blancato Bankruptcy, ECF No. 159 (the “Sale Order”). Because T M Pankopf PLLC had 18 recorded a Deed of Trust against the Prater Way property asserting a junior lien interest against 19 the Prater Way Property, the Sale Order directed that Trustee Gieseke segregate a portion of 20 the proceeds of the Prater Way Property sale pending resolution of the disputed lien issues. See 21 Id. at 5:7-10; see also Exhibit 1, Deed of Trust recorded at Doc. 4507014, Washoe County 22 23 Recorder (the “Pankopf Deed of Trust”). 24 25 26 27 28 1 This name change occurred by way of an Order Changing Name, entered on June 26, 2015, by the Second Judicial District Court, Washoe County, Nevada, Case No. CV15-00841. 2 Case 3:17-cv-00221-LRH Document 20 Filed 07/17/18 Page 3 of 15 1 2 3 4. On April 10, 2017, Tory M. Pankopf, Esq. filed a Notice of Appeal concerning the Sale Order. The Notice of Appeal states it was filed on behalf of T M Pankopf PLLC, Billie Line, and Katarina Bahnsen. See ECF No. 1. 4 5. The Notice of Appeal indicates T M Pankopf PLLC and Billie Line were 5 6 7 8 9 represented by Mr. Pankopf, while Katarina Bahnsen is acting in proper person. 6. T M Pankopf PLLC and Billie Line are collectively referred to herein as the “Pankopf Defendants.” 7. Appellant Billie Line is simply the Trustee under Pankopf Deed of Trust. T M 10 11 Pankopf PLLC is the beneficiary of the Pankopf Deed of Trust. See Exhibit 1. No allegations 12 of wrongdoing have been made against Billie Line. As such, Appellant Billie Line is a nominal 13 party in the underlying Blanacto Bankruptcy, as well as in this appeal. See, e.g., Prasad v. 14 Wells Fargo Bank, N.A., 2011 U.S. Dist. LEXIS 103122 **6-7, 2011 WL 4074300 (W.D. 15 Wash. 2011) (collecting cases). 16 17 8.

As the date of this filing, the Pankopf Bankruptcy remains open, with Trustee 21 Lovato acting as the duly appointed Chapter 7 Trustee. 22 23 10. On June 28, 2017, this Court entered an Order staying this appeal pending the 24 Bankruptcy Court’s resolution of the Motion to Substitute Trustee Christine Lovato in Place of 25 TM Pankopf PLLC as Real Party in Interest, which had been filed by the Manha Family Trust, 26 who held the first position Deed of Trust on the Prater Way Property. See ECF No. 8. 27 28 3 Case 3:17-cv-00221-LRH Document 20 Filed 07/17/18 Page 4 of 15 11. 1 2 3 On July 24, 2017, the Bankruptcy Court entered its Order granting the Substitution Motion substituting Trustee Lovato in as the real party in interest for T M Pankopf PLLC. See Blancato Bankruptcy, ECF No. 197. 4 12. On September 28, 2017, this Court entered its Order lifting the stay on this 5 6 appeal and recommencing briefing. 13. 7 8 9 Trustee Lovato (on behalf of the Pankopf Bankruptcy estate) and Trustee Gieseke (on behalf of the Blancato Bankruptcy estate) reached a settlement resolving the dispute concerning the validity of the Pankopf Deed of Trust and the Pankopf Defendants’ 10 11 interest in the Prater Way Property (the “Pankopf Settlement”). 14. 12 On October 20, 2017, the movants hereto filed a Notice of Pending Settlement 13 and Joint Stipulated Motion to Continue Briefing Deadlines for Appellants T M. Pankopf PLLC 14 and Billie Line Pending Resolution [ECF No. 15], which the Court granted on October 24, 2017 15 [ECF No. 18].
