LBR 1007-1. LISTS, SCHEDULES, AND STATEMENTS

(a) Master Mailing List.

(1) General. A master mailing list must be filed with the voluntary petition in the format specified in The Central Guide. Unless otherwise ordered, the master mailing list must include the name, mailing address, and zip code of each creditor listed on Schedules D, E/F, G, and H.

(2) Partnerships, Corporations, Limited Liability Companies, and Other Eligible Entities. If the debtor is a partnership, corporation, limited liability company, or other eligible entity, the master mailing list must include the name and address of each general partner, senior corporate officer, or managing member. A list of all limited partners, shareholders, or other equity holders must be provided either as part of the master mailing list or as a separate "Equity Holders' Mailing List." The Equity Holders' Mailing List must comply with the format requirements of subsection (a)(1) of this rule.

(3) Verification of Completeness and Accuracy.

(A) The debtor, or such other person as the court may order, is responsible for the accuracy and completeness of the master mailing list, any supplement to the master mailing list, and the Equity Holders' Mailing List.

(B) The master mailing list and any supplement must be accompanied by a declaration by the debtor or debtor's counsel attesting to the completeness and correctness of the list.

(C) If the master mailing list or any supplement is submitted in a court-approved electronic format and the electronic file is prepared by someone other than the debtor or debtor's counsel, a further declaration must be submitted by the preparer to attest to the accuracy of the electronic file as it relates to the information provided by the debtor or debtor's counsel.

(D) The clerk will not compare the names and addresses of the creditors listed in the schedules with the names and addresses shown on the master mailing list or any supplement.

(4) Amendment. When an addition or change is required to the master mailing list, a supplemental master mailing list, in the required format, containing only the newly added or changed creditors must be filed. The supplement must not repeat those creditors on the original master mailing list.

(b) Extension of Time to File Lists, Schedules, Statements, and Other Documents.

(1) A motion for an extension of time to file the lists of creditors and equity security holders, or to file the schedules, statements, and other documents, must: (A) identify the date the petition was filed, and the date of the proposed new deadline; (B) be supported by a declaration under penalty of perjury establishing a sufficient explanation for the requested extension of time; and (C) contain a proof of service upon the case trustee (if any) and all creditors.

(2) The motion may be ruled upon without a hearing pursuant to LBR 9013-1(p).

(3) If the court grants the motion, the court may dismiss the case without further notice and hearing if any list, schedule, statement, or plan (in chapter 13 cases) is not filed within the additional time allowed by the court.

(c) Amendment of List, Schedule or Statement. When an amended list, schedule or statement is filed, it must be accompanied by a Summary of Amended Schedules, Master Mailing List, and/or Statements using the court-approved form.
