PREPACKAGED CHAPTER 11 CASES

If a Chapter 11 Debtor has solicited and obtained votes on a proposed plan before filing the case, and the Debtor seeks confirmation of that plan promptly after filing and without prior approval of a disclosure statement, the Debtor shall file a motion for authority as a "first day motion" under S.D.Ind. B-9013-3, seeking expedited scheduling of the confirmation hearing. If the motion seeking expedited scheduling is granted, the Debtor shall file as separate documents the proposed plan, the pre-petition solicitation document, and a report on voting. 26 | P a g e B-3001-1.

Registered users of CM/ECF shall file claims electronically. Entities not authorized or required to file documents electronically may file claims either on paper or by using the Court’s electronic proof of claim option (“ePOC/eWOC”), found on the Court’s website, and shall comply with S.D. Ind. B-5005- 1(c).

WITHDRAWAL OF PROOF OF CLAIM (a) Notice of Withdrawal Use of the Notice of Withdrawal of Claim ECF event serves as the filer’s certification that the claim may be withdrawn as of right under Fed.R.Bankr.P. 3006(a) and without a Court order. A party in interest may challenge the filing of the Notice of Withdrawal of Claim by filing a Motion to Strike. A Notice of Withdrawal of Claim factually unsupported by the record is effective upon filing unless the Court orders otherwise.

(b) Motion to Withdraw A party that files a motion to withdraw a proof of claim that it previously filed shall provide the Debtor, a trustee, a creditors’ committee, the UST, the affected creditor, and an entity that objected to the claim, if applicable, a 21-day Objection Notice.

The motion, notice, and Certificate of Service may be combined into one document, a sample of which is available on the Court’s website.
