D.N.J. LBR 3007-1. Objecting to a Claim in a Chapter 11, 12, or 13 Case

(a) Procedure. An objection to the allowance of a claim must be brought by motion or adversary proceeding.

(b) Time for filing. A motion or adversary proceeding objecting to a claim must be filed by the later of:

(1) 60 days after the entry of the order confirming plan; or

(2) 60 days after the claim is filed or amended.

(c) Extension. A request for an extension of the time to object to the allowance of a claim must be brought by motion filed before the expiration of the time to object.

2025 Comment The amendments to this Rule are stylistic to conform with the Bankruptcy Rules.

2015 Comment An objection to the allowance of a claim now requires a motion or complaint; a letter to the court or other document, such as an "objection," is insufficient.
