Local Rule 8007-1: Record on Appeal.

Rule 8007-1. Record on Appeal. Unless otherwise ordered by the Bankruptcy Appellate Panel or the District Court, the Bankruptcy Clerk shall retain the original record in all appeals, except exhibits and transcripts, which shall be provided to the Bankruptcy Appellate Panel or District Court in the manner directed by that court. Notwithstanding Fed.R.Bankr.P. 8006, a party filing a designation of items to be included in the record shall not provide copies of the items designated to the Bankruptcy Clerk.

REFERENCES: Fed.Rs.Bankr.P. 8006 and 8007.

Practice Pointer: Because the appellate courts have access to the Bankruptcy Court's electronic records, the transmission of a record on appeal has been greatly simplified.
