Local Bankr. R. 2002-1 Notice and Service to Creditors and Other Interested Parties. Effective March 16, 2026

(a) Notice and Service to Debtor, Creditor, and Parties-in-Interest. In addition to the requirements of any other applicable rule governing service, see Local Bankruptcy Rule 9036-1 and Appendix A, and unless otherwise ordered by the Court, a copy of all motions, pleadings, applications, petitions, and other papers filed in a case or in an adversary proceeding shall be timely served on all Debtors, creditors, parties, other parties-in interest entitled to service, including the U.S. Trustee, and on any CM/ECF filer through the Court's CM/ECF system. A Certificate of Service shall be filed evidencing that such service has been made. See D. Conn. L. Civ. R. 5. When serving documents in hard copy on a business entity such as a corporation, partnership, or bank that is not represented by an attorney in the case or adversary proceeding, such service shall be made using the entity's full address including an attention line to an Officer, President, Director, Manager, or General Agent of the business entity, though not necessarily by individual name. Service on an individual Debtor must be made to the Debtor's address of record even if the individual Debtor is represented by appearing counsel.

(b) Debtor to Provide Notice and Service if Creditor List not filed. If the Creditor List required by 11 U.S.C. § 521(a)(1)(A) and Local Bankruptcy Rule 1007-1(a) has not been timely filed, and notice is required to be served by the Clerk or a party other than the Debtor, the Debtor shall serve the notice and file a Certificate of Service evidencing that such service has been made. See D. Conn. L. Civ. R. 5.
