The issue can be reproduced at will with the following steps:
1. Login as ADMIN user
2. Go to order release finder
3. Run a query to get a results list
4. For a particular release, click on the + to get the tree view of related objects.
5. Click on the trash can next to a SELL shipment (may have to search a bit to find a release with a corresponding SELL shipment).
6. Observe the java error (which shows up only in glog.web.log on the web server, by the way).
