U.S. Bankruptcy Court of Central District of Illinois - Updates

November 21, 2017 9:52 AM | Christopher Smith (Administrator)

Noticing of Amended Plans
Effective December 1, 2017, the U.S. Bankruptcy Court for the Central District of Illinois will delegate noticing of all amended plans, filed in Chapter 13 and Chapter 12 cases, to debtor's counsel or debtor.  

Certificate of Service for Amended Plans
Upon the filing of an amended plan, debtor's counsel or debtor is required to notice the amended plan in accordance with the Federal Rules of Bankruptcy Procedure and file a certificate of service.  The certificate of service must be captioned properly, include the date of service, the name, the address of each party served, the method of service, and state the name of the document being served. 

The Clerk’s Office will continue to send notices of the objection deadline and confirmation hearing on amended plans to the creditors listed on the mailing matrix through the Bankruptcy Noticing Center.

Note:  Unless a party has specifically opted to receive electronic notice/service in lieu of manual notice/service, all noticing/service must be made in accordance with Federal Rule of Bankruptcy Procedure 2002.  To determine whether a party is currently on the list to receive notice/service by email in a case, electronic filers can go to the “Utilities” bar in CM/ECF, then to “Mailings...” under the “Miscellaneous” heading, and then to “Mailing Info for a Case.”  If a party is not listed on the “Electronic Mail Notice List,” then manual notice/service is required.
