RULE 3007–1 Objecting to a Claim

(a) Contents of Objection. All objections to claims shall state with particularity the grounds therefor and shall set forth the relief or order sought.

(b) Filing of Notice with Objection. Unless filed with a motion to shorten notice and expedite hearing, the objecting party must file and serve with the objection with no less than thirty (30) days' notice, a notice of the objection, opportunity to object, and/or notice of hearing (which complies with this Rule and Local Bankruptcy Rule 9013–1).

(c) Requirement of Written Response. A creditor served with an objection to claim shall file and serve on the objecting party, a response thereto within thirty (30) days of service if a notice of opportunity to request a hearing is given, or seven (7) days prior to the hearing if the objection is accompanied by a notice of hearing. If no response is filed, the Court may treat the objection as conceded, and the Court may enter an order without holding a hearing disallowing the claim in whole or in part as set forth in the objection to claim.
