Debtor.
Chapter 11 Case No. 18-09108-RLM-11
OMNIBUS REPLY IN SUPPORT OF DEBTOR’S SECOND OMNIBUS OBJECTION TO MISCLASSIFIED PRIORITY CLAIMS AND NOTICE OF RESPONSE DEADLINE
USA Gymnastics, as debtor and debtor in possession in the above-captioned chapter 11
case (the “Debtor” or “USAG”), files its reply (the “Reply”) to the response filed by Robin Smith
[Dkt. 694], and the responses filed by Cynthia Morano [Dkts. 695 & 696] (together, the
“Responses”), to the Debtor’s Second Omnibus Objection To Misclassified Priority Claims And
Notice Of Response Deadline [Dkt. 628] (the “Objection”).
REPLY
USAG’s creditors filed 85 claims arising from services they provided at pre-petition
gymnastics training camps, primarily seeking expense reimbursements and honorariums. Of these
claims, 48 were filed as general unsecured claims and 37 were filed as priority wage claims.
USAG objected to 30 priority claims on the basis that the claim holders were not employees and
therefore, the claims were not entitled to priority. Only two claim holders—Robin Smith and
Cynthia Morano—opposed this reclassification. [See Dkts. 694, 695, & 696.] As set forth in the
Objection, neither Ms. Smith nor Ms. Morano, both of whom seek priority status under section
507(a)(4), were employees of the Debtor, and as such neither fit within section 507(a)(4)(A)’s
1 The last four digits of the Debtor’s federal tax identification number are 7871. The location of the Debtor’s
principal office is 130 E. Washington Street, Suite 700, Indianapolis, Indiana 46204.
Case 18-09108-RLM-11 Doc 709 Filed 08/12/19 EOD 08/12/19 15:48:12 Pg 1 of 3

priority for wages, salaries, or commissions. (See Claims 24 (Smith), 44 (Morano), and 45
(Morano) (Exhibits A-C hereto)). Nothing in the Responses changes this conclusion.
Ms. Smith’s and Ms. Morano’s claims relate to expenses they incurred as athlete
chaperones for the Debtor. The Debtor objected to the classification of Ms. Smith’s and Ms.
Morano’s claims because those claims do not “tightly” fit within section 507(a)(4)(A)’s priority
for wages, salaries, or commissions. Howard Delivery Serv., Inc. v. Zurich Am. Ins. Co., 547 U.S.
651, 667 (2006). The purpose of this wage priority is “to enable employees displaced by
bankruptcy to secure, with some promptness, the money directly due to them in back wages, and
thus to alleviate in some degree the hardship that unemployment usually brings to workers and
their families.” In re Viva Vista Ventures, Inc., No. 09-32313, 2010 WL 3366408, at *3 (Bankr.
N.D. Ohio Aug. 23, 2010) (quoting U.S. v. Embassy Restaurant, Inc., 359 U.S. 29, 32 (1959)).
Courts have therefore refused to grant wage priority to individuals who had a “mere contractual
relationship” with a debtor, and who were not a debtor’s employees. In re Tropicana
Entertainment, LLC, No. 08-10856 (KJC), 2015 WL 6112064, at *7 n.12 (Bankr. D. Del. Oct. 14,
2015); see also In re Eco-Smart, Inc. No. 15-BK-27139-RK, 2015 WL 9274245, at *6-9 (Bankr.
C.D. Cal. Dec. 18, 2015); In re Grant Indus. Inc., 133 B.R. 514 (Bankr. W.D. Mo. 1991); In re
St. Joseph’s Hosp., 126 B.R. 37 (Bankr. E.D. Pa. 1991). Here, Ms. Smith and Ms. Morano had a
mere contractual relationship with USAG, just like other non-employee, non-priority creditors who
provided services at USAG events. They did not work at USAG on a day-to-day basis and did not
rely on USAG for their livelihoods. Because there was no “employer-employee relationship”
between USAG and Ms. Smith and Ms. Morano, their claims are not entitled to priority under
section 507(a)(4)(A). In re St. Joseph’s Hosp., 126 B.R. at 43.
In their Responses, Ms. Smith and Ms. Morano do not claim to be employees. They also
Case 18-09108-RLM-11 Doc 709 Filed 08/12/19 EOD 08/12/19 15:48:12 Pg 2 of 3
3
do not cite any authority to support their contention that as non-employees they can claim priority
under section 507(a)(4). Instead, they argue that they provided services to the Debtor and should
be paid. While the Debtor appreciates Ms. Smith’s and Ms. Morano’s contributions, it also has an
obligation to review the claims against the estate and treat all similarly-situated creditors the same.
By requesting the reclassification of Ms. Smith and Ms. Morano’s claims, USAG is not seeking to
disallow their claims. Ms. Smith and Ms. Morano will still hold general unsecured claims (in
amounts consistent with the Debtor’s schedules, see Dkt. 242, at 42-43, 150)), and will be treated
like all other similarly-situated general unsecured creditors in the Debtor’s plan.
For each of the reasons set forth in the Objection and in this Reply, USAG respectfully
requests that the Court sustain the Objection and enter the order substantially in the form attached
to the Objection as Exhibit B, reclassifying (but not disallowing) the priority claims subject to the
Objection and granting such other relief as may be just.2

2 The Debtor objected to two of Ms. Morano’s claims—Claim Nos. 179 and 180—on the basis that those
claims are duplicative of her earlier filed Claim 44. [See Dkt. 624.] Ms. Morano’s responses are limited to the Objection filed to Claims 44 and 45. She did not respond to the duplicate claims objection.
