Bankr. S.D. Cal. — General rule
4001-1. Applicability of Rule and Assignment of Identification Number to Relief from Stay Motions.
(a) Applicability of Rule. This rule read in conjunction with FRBP 4001 prescribes procedures for filing motions for relief from the automatic stay pursuant to 11 U.S.C. § 362 and for related relief from a co-debtor stay under § 1201(a) or 1301(a). This rule does not govern motions for use of cash collateral or to obtain credit. Such motions are governed by FRBP 4001(b), (c), and (d) and LBR 9013.
(b) Assignment of Identification Number to Motions for Relief from Stay. Before serving and filing the motion and the notice of motion, the Movant must assign a relief from stay number ("RS No."), inserted two lines below the case number. This RS No. must appear on all copies of the motion and notice of motion which are served on any party and on all subsequent Documents relating to the motion. The RS No. must consist of not more than 3 initials of the attorney for Movant and the number which is one number higher than the number of relief from stay motions previously filed by the attorney in conjunction with that specific case. [Example: the first RS No. assigned by Attorney John D. Doe in the "Smith" case would be JDD-1, the second JDD-2, the third JDD-3, and so on.]
