remove lines containing stack trace

Hello, I just started to use Splunk to search and generate reports from logs collected from a Java application. Sometimes the logs contain errors and the corresponding stack trace.
To generate reports I would like to remove all the lines containing the stack traces.
Because those lines don't start with a timestamp I'm wondering if it is possible to remove all the log lines that don't start with a time stamp.
But if there are other ways to accomplish the same thing I'd appreciate any help.
