2025 Advisory Committee Notes Local Rule 4008-1 was retitled to better conform to Fed. R. Bankr. P. 4008(a). Subsection (a) was removed as unnecessary. Based on the filing with the court, the court will determine whether a hearing is necessary and schedule such hearing accordingly. Subsection (b) was removed as duplicative of Fed. R. Bankr. P. 4008(a). Federal Rule of Bankruptcy Procedure 4008(a) requires that every reaffirmation agreement be accompanied by Official Form 427. Local Form 4008-1(a), or Local Form 4008-1 as it was titled on the Court's website, was abrogated. Parties should use Director's Form 2400A/B ALT instead.
