The following order upload is required in all Chapter 11 cases and Chapter 7 business cases:
To upload a saved PDF image use the Order Upload event under the Bankruptcy menu. Motions and proposed orders will continue to be filed as they are now, but upon submission of the Certificate of No Objection or Certification of Counsel, the order must be uploaded.
In cases where the motion is scheduled for a hearing, the proposed order should be uploaded at the time the Notice of Agenda is filed, or as soon as reasonably possible thereafter.
The proposed order must allow 4 inches of blank space at the end of the order for the Judge’s signature and date. Do not include a signature line nor a date line, as they will be included with the Judge’s electronic signature.
Exhibit(s) to an Order must be uploaded separately as “Attachments to Document”.
Pro hac vice motions should be formatted to allow the signature on the bottom of the last page. Local Form 105 is designed to be a single page order, however if you add additional content that moves the text to additional pages allow 4 inches of blank space at the end of the order, the signature will be entered on the last page. Click here for Local Form 105.
Please review the electronic learning module titled Uploading a Proposed Order for Electronic Signature that will demonstrate the additional steps required for electronic order processing.
