This page provides information referenced in Judge Deller’s Case Management Order that is to became part of his new procedures effective January 1, 2021. This information will change from time to time as the procedures are implemented.
(1) STIPULATED ORDERS MODIFYING PLANS: The new procedures (at Paragraph 11 of the Order) urge the use of Stipulated Orders Modifying Plans previously confirmed on a final basis. Debtor(s) Counsel is to draft the proposed Order (JAD FORM 023) and submit it to the Trustee for review. The email address for the proposed modifications is: [email protected].
PLEASE NOTE: THE STIPULATED ORDER IS INTENDED TO MODIFY A PLAN PREVIOUSLY CONFIRMED ON A FINAL BASIS. IT IS APPROPRIATE FOR MODIFICATIONS THAT DO NOT ADVERSELY AFFECT CREDITORS OR TO WHICH AFFECTED CREDITORS HAVE AGREED OR BECOME BOUND AS A RESULT OF A COURT ORDER.
(2) AMENDED PLANS OR PROPOSED CURES OF PLANS IN DEFAULT (filed in lieu of proposing a STIPULATED ORDER): The new procedures (at Para 11 (with respect to the Notice of Proposal to Cure Plan Defaults) and Para 12 (with respect to formal plan amendment and modification in lieu of stipulated orders)) require Debtor(s) Counsel to select an initial conciliation date to consider the proposal / modifications. In other words, the COURT WILL NO LONGER SCHEDULE A CONCILIATION DATE FOR THE AMENDED PLAN OR PROPOSED CURE OF PLAN DEFAULTS for Judge Deller cases. Instead, under Judge Deller’s new procedures, Debtor(s) Counsel’s MUST pick the date and time for the conciliation and insert it into the Notice. Debtor’s counsel MUST then file and serve the notice and proposed cure/modification. Debtor’s counsel MUST indicate in the ECF Docket the date and time of the scheduled conciliation). **
A list of available dates and times for the conciliation of the proposed cure/modification are available at: JAD Conciliation Dates. Please choose first available time slot for each available date. NOTE: THE PROCEDURES REQUIRE THE ATTORNEY TO PICK A DATE MORE THAN 30 AND LESS THAN 60 DAYS FROM THE DATE THE AMENDED PLAN IS FILED.
**PLEASE MAKE SURE THAT YOU INDICATE THE CONCILIATION DATE, AND TIME, AND “CHAPTER 13 341 ZOOM LOCATION” FOR LOCATION, WHEN ENTERING INFORMATION IN THE ECF DOCKET WHEN THE DOCUMENT(S) ARE FILED. IF THE DATE AND TIME OF THE CONCILIATION CONFERENCE DO NOT APPEAR IN THE ECF DOCKET THE TRUSTEE’S SOFTWARE WILL NOT CAPTURE THE SCHEDULING INFORMATION AND THE MATTER MAY NOT APPEAR ON THE TRUSTEE’S CALENDAR. **
