Chambers Rule of Judge Craig, Judge Trust, Judge Grossman and Judge Scarcella RE: 72 Hour Deadline for filing papers in opposition to the Chapter 13 Trustee' motions to dismiss and submission of documents to the Chapter 13 Trustee

Monday, July 9, 2018

In cases assigned to the Honorable Carla E. Craig, Honorable Alan S. Trust, Honorable Robert E. Grossman and Honorable Louis A. Scarcella, effective 8/01/2018, for hearings on motions to dismiss in Chapter 13 cases, all opposition papers must be filed and transmitted so as to be received by the Chapter 13 Trustee at least 72 hours in advance of the scheduled hearing. Where the motion to dismiss is based upon failure to provide documentation to the Chapter 13 Trustee as required by E.D.N.Y. LBR 2003-1, or as requested at the 341 meeting, such documents must also be transmitted so as to be received by the Chapter 13 Trustee at least 72 hours in advance of the scheduled hearing.
Papers or documents filed or transmitted to the Chapter 13 Trustee less than 72 hours before the scheduled hearing will not be considered at the hearing, and the filing of papers, or transmission of documents to the Chapter 13 Trustee, after that deadline, will not be grounds for denial or adjournment of any motion to dismiss, unless a written request for an extension of time is granted by the court before the expiration of the deadline. Any such request must be filed on the docket, served on the Chapter 13 Trustee, and emailed to the Judge’s chambers.
