GENERAL ORDER SUSPENDING PROVISIONS OF LOCAL RULES THAT REQUIRE FILING OF ADDITIONAL COPIES
The Court has determined that the copies of bankruptcy petitions, lists, schedules, statements, amendments, proofs of claim, and complaints, required by Local Bankruptcy Rules 1007-1(a), 1009-1(d), 3001-1, and 7003-1, are no longer necessary in that the parties for whom such copies were provided are now furnished with copies of those documents by electronic means. Accordingly, it is
GENERALLY ORDERED that the provisions contained in Local Rules 1007-1(a), 1009-1(d), 3001-1, and 7003-1 that require the filing of additional copies of bankruptcy petitions, lists, schedules, statements, amendments, proofs of claim, and complaints are hereby suspended for both electronic and non-electronic filers.
