On June 25, 2024, and effective on that date, the Court entered Standing Order 24-11. That Order amends (C) Interim Procedure 3003-1(A), at Exhibit 13, therein, of the Court’s Local Bankruptcy Rules. The Order addresses the Claims Bar Date in chapter 11, subchapter V cases, as to the amount of time in which governmental units have to file timely proofs of claim. The amendment provides the following clarification, which is not intended to constitute a substantive change: “For governmental units, a proof of claim is timely if filed not later than 180 days after the entry of an order for relief, unless a different date is fixed by the Court.”
The on-line version of the Court’s Local Bankruptcy Rules is in the process of being updated to incorporate this amendment into Exhibit 13 (C) Interim Procedure 3003-1(A). The Order is accessible on the Court internet website’s home page under the New & Announcements header. It also is accessible on that website’s Standing Orders webpage.
