TO THE HONORABLE BARRY RUSSEL, UNITED STATES BANKRUTPCY JUDGE:

Elissa D. Miller (“Trustee” or “Plaintiff”), solely in her capacity as the duly appointed and

acting Chapter 7 trustee for the bankruptcy estate of Computer Czech, LLC (“Debtor”),

respectfully complains and alleges as follows:

I. JURISDICTION AND VENUE

1. This Court has jurisdiction over this adversary proceeding pursuant to 28 U.S.C.

§§ 151, 157 and 1334 as this is a core proceeding under 28 U.S.C. § 157(b)(2)(A), (H) and (O)

and to the extent any related claims are determined not to be a core proceeding, the Plaintiff

consents to an entry of final judgment and orders by the Bankruptcy Court. Venue is proper in

this District under 28 U.S.C. § 1409(a), as this adversary proceeding arises under title 11 or arises

in or relates to a case under title 11 which is pending in this District in that this proceeding arises

in and is related to the Debtor’s bankruptcy case, which was commenced through the filing of a

voluntary petition for relief under Chapter 7 of the Bankruptcy Code on June 25, 2011 (the

“Petition Date”) pending in the Central District of California, Los Angeles Division as In re

Computer Czech, LLC, Case No. . 2:10-bk-37453-BR.

2. This is an adversary proceeding filed pursuant to the Federal Rule of Bankruptcy

Procedure 7001(1) (a proceeding to recover money or property).

3. Plaintiff, as Trustee, has standing to bring this action under 11 U.S.C. §§ 323, 542,

544, 548, and 550.

4. To the extent that the Plaintiff asserts claims under 11 U.S.C. § 544, the Plaintiff is

informed and believes and based thereon alleges that there exists in this case one or more

creditors holding unsecured claims allowable under 11 U.S.C. § 502 or are not allowable under

11 U.S.C. § 502(e), who can avoid the respective transfers as set forth below under California or

other applicable law.

II. PARTIES

5. Plaintiff is the duly appointed, qualified and acting Chapter 7 Trustee for the

Debtor’s bankruptcy estate (“Estate”), and brings the claims asserted herein in that capacity.

6. Plaintiff is informed and believes that Defendant Abacus, IT, Inc. (“Abacus”) is a

California Corporation with its principal place of business in Los Angeles California.

7. Plaintiff is informed and believes that Defendant Jirka Ambroz (“Ambroz”) is an

individual residing in Los Angeles County, California. Plaintiff is informed and believes and

alleges thereon that Ambroz is the president, CEO and majority shareholder of Computer Czech,

Inc., is and was at all relevant times herein an insider, as that term is defined by Section 101(31)

of the Bankruptcy Code (an “Insider”), of the Debtor.

8. At all times mentioned herein, a unity of interest and ownership existed between

the Debtor and Abacus and Ambroz, such that the separateness of these Defendants from the

Debtor never existed. Plaintiff is further informed and believes and based thereon alleges that the

Debtor failed to adhere to corporate formalities and that its corporate form should be ignored.

9. Adherence to the fiction of the separate existence of the individually named

defendant Ambroz as entities distinct from the Debtor and Abacus would permit an abuse of the

corporate privilege and would sanction fraud and promote injustice.

III. GENERAL ALLEGATIONS

10. Plaintiff is informed and believes that Ambroz formed Abacus on May 12, 2011,

approximately one month prior to the Petition Date.

11. Plaintiff is informed and believes that Abacus and Ambroz has taken over the

These assets include the Debtor’s telephone numbers, business location, the Debtor’s contracts,

the Debtor’s customer list and contacts, the Debtor’s software, inventory, intellectual properties

(including, but not limited to concepts, trademarks and trade names), and equipment.

12. Plaintiff is informed and believes that on May 17, 2011, Ambroz sent an email to

the Debtor’s entire customer list announcing that “[he] along with all of the best Computer Czech

technicians, will be technicians and employees of Abacus IT, Inc. Computer Czech LLC has

formally closed. . .” and further, that “Abacus IT ha[s] acquired the same phone numbers used by

Computer Czech and [Ambroz’s] personal cell remains the same to assist you with all your

U.S.C. § 550 to the extent such Transfer is avoided.

FIFTH CLAIM FOR RELIEF

breaches of fiduciary duty and actual fiduciary conflicts of interest, proximately resulting in the

41. Plaintiff is informed and believes and based thereon alleges that the Debtor was

further deprived of independent legal advice at all stages of its existence, and was unable to

effectively defend itself from breaches of duty, conversion, waste, and fraud perpetrated on it by

Ambroz, at all times in issue.

INSTRUCTIONS

The filing of a bankruptcy case creates an "estate" under the jurisdiction of the bankruptcy court which consists of all ofthe property of the debtor, wherever that property is located. Because the bankruptcy estate is so extensive and the jurisdictionof the court so broad, there may be lawsuits over the property or property rights of the estate. There also may be lawsuitsconcerning the debtor’s discharge. If such a lawsuit is filed in a bankruptcy court, it is called an adversary proceeding.

A party filing an adversary proceeding must also must complete and file Form 104, the Adversary Proceeding Cover Sheet,unless the party files the adversary proceeding electronically through the court’s Case Management/Electronic Case Filingsystem (CM/ECF). (CM/ECF captures the information on Form 104 as part of the filing process.) When completed, the coversheet summarizes basic information on the adversary proceeding. The clerk of court needs the information to process theadversary proceeding and prepare required statistical reports on court activity.

The cover sheet and the information contained on it do not replace or supplement the filing and service of pleadings orother papers as required by law, the Bankruptcy Rules, or the local rules of court. The cover sheet, which is largely self-explanatory, must be completed by the plaintiff’s attorney (or by the plaintiff if the plaintiff is not represented by an attorney).A separate cover sheet must be submitted to the clerk for each complaint filed.

Plaintiffs and Defendents. Give the names of the plaintiffs and defendants exactly as they appear on the complaint.

Attorneys. Give the names and addresses of the attorneys, if known.

Party. Check the most appropriate box in the first column for the plaintiffs and the second column for the defendants.

Demand. Enter the dollar amount being demanded in the complaint.

Signature. This cover sheet must be signed by the attorney of record in the box on the second page of the form. If the plaintiffis represented by a law firm, a member of the firm must sign. If the plaintiff is pro se, that is, not presented by an attorney, theplaintiff must sign.
