AUTOMATIC STAY - EXTENDING

A motion to extend the automatic stay under 11 U.S.C. § 362(c)(3) shall be filed within five (5) days of the filing of the petition. The debtor shall properly serve all interested parties simultaneously with the filing of the motion. Interested parties shall include, but not be limited to, the United States trustee, the case trustee, any co-owner of affected property, and all lien holders of affected property. Advisory Committee Notes 2023 Amendment This amended rule includes a substantive change.

The title and text of the rule was amended to clearly state that it only applies to extending the automatic stay and does not apply to imposing the automatic stay. 2020 Amendment The amended rule includes only stylistic changes, including amending the title to better parallel the titles of the other local rules applicable to Bankruptcy Rule 4001 and making other clarifications. Note that as of the time of the amendment, Administrative Order 15-002 provides a robust and detailed set of requirements over and above what this Local Rule provides.
