PRE-2024 COMMITTEE NOTE

Local Civil Rule 83.1 needs to be reworded, because the transfer of cases is normally

carried out today electronically rather than by mail. On balance, the Committee believes

that the seven-day waiting period in Local Civil Rule 83.1 should be retained, in order

to allow the party opposing transfer the same opportunity as the current rule affords to

seek rehearing or appellate review.
