503(b)(9), if that's what was mentioned, is a section of the code apparently intended to protect suppliers of goods and services to firms that are going belly up.  Totally armchair here, I know as much about bankruptcy proceedings as I do about speaking Thai, but it suggests to me that there are unpaid suppliers of materials/services to Hashfast that are pressing claim.  That or the judge is creating a time window during which any such suppliers could present themselves.
