Updated Bankruptcy CM/ECF events

Three CM/ECF events have been updated to create efficiencies for our filers:

  • Motion to Dismiss-Depending on motion and chapter type, filers may utilize new radio buttons to select if the motion is being filed under 14 or 21 days notice.
  • Statement of No Objection-The event now works as a text only docket event, similar to how trustees docket the information.  Filers are not required to attach a pleading during the event, but the ability to attach any other documentation (e.g. indication of communication between parties, etc.) is still available in the event.
  • Adversary Case Opening-Two new questions are asked to determine how the filing fees will be paid.  If the plaintiff is the trustee or a debtor-in-possession, an additional prompt will appear to inquire about deferral of the filing fee.  If the plaintiff is the debtor, U.S. Government agency or a child support creditor or its representative, the filing fee will not be charged to these fee exempt filers.
