Local Rule LBR 3004-1: Claims Filed on Behalf of Creditor

LBR 3004-1. Claims Filed on Behalf of Creditor

(a) Notice. A party filing a proof of claim on behalf of a creditor under Bankruptcy Rules 3004 or 3005 must serve the creditor with a copy of the filed proof of claim, and a notice of the filing substantially conforming to the local form (Notice Regarding Claim Filed on Behalf of Creditor). The filing party must promptly file a certificate of service showing when, how, and on whom service was made. If the filing party amends or withdraws the proof of claim, the filing party shall also serve the amended claim or withdrawal of claim on the creditor and file a certificate of service.

(b) Amended Claim Filed by Creditor. When a proof of claim has been filed on behalf of a creditor under Bankruptcy Rule 3004 or 3005, the creditor may file an amended proof of claim within 30 days after service of the notice required under subdivision (a) of this rule. Unless the court orders otherwise, the amended proof of claim filed by the creditor will supersede the proof of claim filed by another entity.
