Changes of address must be separately filed in each case file and adversary proceeding showing the proper case number or adversary number. Filing in the main case alone is not sufficient. A party shall not be entitled to notice at the new address in the absence of complete compliance with this rule.
When an attorney has a Court appearance which is scheduled for the same time as a 341 meeting, counsel should give prompt written notice of the conflict to the case trustee, the Chapter 13 Trustee, and/or the United States Trustee as is appropriate. Notice to the Bankruptcy Judge to whom the case is assigned without notice to the appropriate trustee is insufficient. In the absence of specific contrary directions from the Court the attorney shall appear at the Court proceeding and arrange for substitute counsel at the 341 meeting.
(a) The trustee or debtor-in-possession shall file the report required by Bankruptcy Rule 2015(a)(5) within thirty (30) days of the entry of the order of confirmation.

All creditors and their counsel who file a proof of claim in this Court are hereby directed to serve by First Class Mail a true copy of said proof of claim and all attachments thereto upon the debtors' counsel of record at the address of said debtors' counsel shown on the Notice of the Creditors Meeting convened pursuant to 11 U.S.C. § 341. The filing of such a proof of claim shall constitute a certificate by said creditor and/or its counsel that this order has been complied with. Said creditors and/or their counsel are, however, directed not to file any separate certificate of service in the Clerk's Office.
Without in any way limiting or amending any provision of the Code or Rules that govern the filing of proofs of claim, all claims filed in this Court shall be filed for the net principal balance only as of the date of the debtor's filing of his or her case. Unless otherwise ordered by the Bankruptcy Judge, the Chapter 13 Trustee is directed to pay interest at a rate of 12% per annum on all allowed secured claims and is further directed to file objections to or notify debtor's counsel with respect to any claim which is not filed in accordance with the terms of this order. The sanction provisions of Bankruptcy Rule 9011 apply to claims filed in violation of applicable provisions of the Bankruptcy Code and Rules.

Except in Chapter 11 cases, if collateral securing a claim, including property which is the subject of a lease, is an over-the-road vehicle, such as an automobile, motorcycle, trailer, or a boat or an airplane, and if the same is not insured with full collision and comprehensive insurance, then the holder of such claim may file with the Bankruptcy Court a motion for ex parte relief from the stay of 11 U.S.C. § 362(a) pursuant to 11 U.S.C. § 362(f) to obtain possession of the collateral or leased property.
(b) Chapter 11 Cases. The Bankruptcy Court may, in its discretion, apply this rule to a Chapter 11 case.
(1) Include a description of the collateral or leased property, a statement of the amount of the claim and the basis on which the claim is secured, a statement of the basis on which the moving party believes that the collateral or leased property is not insured with full comprehensive insurance; and a statement that the moving party or its attorney has given or attempted to give oral notice to the debtor's attorney or the debtor, if the debtor is not represented by counsel, that the motion is being filed.
(E) The holder of the claim or its attorney shall serve copies of the motion and order promptly on the debtor, the debtor's attorney, and the Trustee, and shall provide telephonic notice to the debtor's attorney and the Trustee, if the Trustee is in actual physical possession of the property.

Reaffirmation agreements will be governed by 11 U.S.C. § 524(c) and shall be filed before the expiration of the time for filing objections to discharge. If a reaffirmation agreement is filed in a particular case a discharge hearing will be scheduled. Notices of said discharge hearings will be mailed to debtor, debtor's attorney, and the trustee.

Rule LBR 9072-1(a) shall not apply to motions for relief from a stay filed pursuant to 11 U.S.C. §362 in cases filed under Chapters 7, 12, or 13, unless the notice of the hearing issued by the Clerk contains an express requirement that a proposed order be filed along with movant's certificate of service.
(c) Adversary Proceedings. In all adversary proceedings, plaintiff and defendant shall separately file with the Court, not later than the date and time scheduled for trial a set of proposed findings of fact and conclusions of law, based on evidence which each reasonably believes will be proven at trial, and containing relevant legal authority to support the conclusions reached.
