2025 Advisory Committee Notes Local Rule 3017-1 was retitled and amended to reflect that for purposes of Fed. R. Bankr. P. 3017(a) and 9014(a), any objection to the approval of a disclosure statement in a chapter 11 case need only comply with Local Rules 9006-1(b) and 9013-1(b) and (c). For example, no notice of hearing and motion is required. The hearing on the disclosure statement is the relevant hearing for purposes of the objection and no separate notice of hearing is required. However, parties must still comply with the service requirements of Fed. R. Bankr. P. 3017(a), 9014(b), and 7004, as well as Local Rules 9013-2 and 9036-1.
