Local Rule Rule 3007-1: [ABROGATED]
Bankr. D. Minn. — General rule
Rule 3007-1. [ABROGATED]
[Effective April 15, 1997. Amended effective January 1, 2002; January 9, 2006; December 1, 2009; May 1, 2015; October 1, 2019. Abrogated effective September 3, 2025.]
2025 Advisory Committee Notes Local Rule 3007-1 was abrogated to ensure consistency with Fed. R. Bankr. P. 3007 and to avoid duplication of the same. The 1983 Advisory Committee Notes to Fed. R. Bankr. P. 9014 remark that "the filing of an objection to a proof of claim" constitutes a contested matter. Under Fed. R. Bankr. P. 9014(a), "relief must be requested by motion." While Local Rule 9013-1(a)(1) generally requires a notice of hearing and motion in conformance with Local Form 9013-1, Fed. R. Bankr. P. 3007(a) makes clear that notice of an objection to a claim must substantially conform to Official Form 420B. A party filing a motion objecting to a claim should use Official Form 420B instead of Local Form 9013-1. Lastly, the provision about counterclaims was removed as duplicative of Fed. R. Bankr. P. 3007(b).
