-38- (d) Effect of Failure to Timely File a Certification or Obtain an Order Determining that § 522(q)(1) Applies. A debtor’s case may be closed without entry of a discharge if either: (1) the debtor is required, but fails, to timely file a certification required under LBR 1007-1(f) or (2) the court enters an order determining a debtor’s discharge not be entered in the ordinary course because § 522(q)(1) is applicable. If the debtor either subsequently satisfies all requirements regarding the certifications, or has a change of circumstances regarding § 522(q)(1) applicability, the debtor may request entry of discharge by contemporaneously filing either each required certification or a motion for entry of discharge (whichever is applicable), filing a motion to reopen the case, and paying the required reopening fee.
