    Creditor, DANIEL LUSHAN ("Lushan"), by and through undersigned counsel andpursuant to 11 U.S.C. 362 and Rule 4001 of the Federal Rules of Bankruptcy Procedure, filesthis Motion for Relief from Automatic Stay (the "Motion") and requests relief from the stayagainst Debtor, POITIER FUNERAL HOME, INC., to enable Lushan to proceed with thepending foreclosure sale in state court:

    3. While Poitier is the only obligor under the attached Promissory Note (Exhibit 1)and Mortgage (Exhibit 2), Debtor, as a tenant on the Poitier Property, was named as a defendantin said state court action styled Lushan v. Poitier, case no. 09-58930-CA-23.

    4. On June 17, 2010, Lushan obtained a Final Judgment of Foreclosure, attachedhereto as Exhibit 3, and he was found to be due from Poitier $501,000 in principal, $82,370.41in interest to and including the date of the Final Judgment, $2,224.75 in title search and othercosts, and $2,765.00 in attorneys' fees, totaling at $683,915.05 (the "Judgment Amount"), whichamount does not include the interests and fees/costs that have accrued since the entry of the FinalJudgment of Foreclosure.

    5. The initial foreclosure sale of the Poitier Property was set for September 1, 2010,and just two weeks before the scheduled sale, on August 17, 2010, Poitier filed a Chapter 13Voluntary Petition under case no. 10-34158-AJC.

    6. Lushan asserted that Poirier's Chapter 13 Petition constituted a "bad faith filing"and was granted stay relief on an emergency basis on August 31, 2010, but the foreclosure salecould not be reinstated in time. Meanwhile, Poitier never filed any Schedules, Plans, Statementsof Financial Affairs or Monthly Income, or any other required documents to support his Chapter13 Petition, and that case was accordingly dismissed with prejudice on October 15, 2010.

    7. The foreclosure sale of the Poitier Property was rescheduled for October 22, 2010.And that morning-on October 22, 2010-Poitier Funeral Home filed a Chapter 7 VoluntaryPetition [ECF No. 1] and caused the foreclosure sale to be cancelled once again.

    8. To be clear, Debtor currently has no claim or interest in the Poitier Property asany claim or interest in Debtor's capacity as a tenant has been foreclosed upon, and it also has no

    Case 10-42231-AJC Doc 11 Filed 11/16/10 Page 3 of 22

    submitted in an abundance of caution, Lushan believes and asserts in good faith that subjectforeclosure action is not actually stayed under 11 U.S.C. 362 by the commencement of thiscase and that Poitier Funeral Home lacks standing to enforce the automatic stay to prevent theforeclosure sale from proceeding forward.

    9. Additionally, Lushan seeks an order of this Court directing that no furtherbankruptcy filing by Poitier, Poitier Funeral Homes, or any of their affiliates shall serve toautomatically stay the foreclosure proceeding in Lushan v. Poitier, case no. 09-58930-CA-23.

    WHEREFORE, Daniel Lushan respectfuJJy requests that this Court: (1) grant full andcomplete relief from the automatic stay pursuant to 11 U.S.C 362, so that Lushan mayprosecute through completion the foreclosure action in Lushan v. Poitier, case no. 09-58930-CA-23; (2) waive the requirements of Rule 4001(a)(3) of the Federal Rules of Bankruptcy Procedureand allow the stay relief order to be effective immediately upon the entry of such order; (3) directthat no further bankruptcy filing by Poitier, Poitier Funeral Homes, or any of their affiliates shallserve to automatically stay the foreclosure proceeding in Lushan v. Poitier, case no. 09-58930-CA-23; and (4) grant such further relief as this Court deems just and proper.
