Local Rule Rule 1009-1: Lists and Schedules Not Filed with the Petition and Amendments to Lists and Schedules
Bankr. W.D. Mo. — General rule
Rule 1009-1. Lists and Schedules Not Filed with the Petition and Amendments to Lists and Schedules A. Verification. Any schedules, statements or lists not filed with the petition and amendments to schedules, statements or lists filed with the Court must be accompanied by a debtor verification (See Local Form - MOW 1009-1.1). The debtor verification filed by the attorney for the debtor(s) shall be filed as a separate document and shall contain the image of the original signature of the debtor(s) or an image with the debtor'(s) signature captured electronically at the time of document generation.
B. Service and Notice. Debtor must serve amendments to schedules, matrices and statements of affairs on affected entities, the United States Trustee, and the trustee in the case in time to comply with applicable provisions of §523(a)(3), with a Notice (See Local Form - MOW 1009-1.3 for the Notice) as follows:
1. For each affected entity, the name and address, amount owed, and date the debt was incurred;
2. The name and address of debtor's counsel and the trustee;
3. The bar date for filing claims, or a statement that no date has been set, or that it is a no-asset case and claims need not be filed. If the time has passed, or will pass within 30 days, and creditors without knowledge of the bankruptcy are added, they have 30 days after service of the notice to file claims; and 4. The deadline for filing § 523 and § 727 complaints. If the time has passed, or will pass within 30 days, and creditors without knowledge of the bankruptcy are added, they have 30 days after service of the notice to file complaints.
C. Amended Matrix. An amended matrix is not required if filed in connection with a Notice of Amendment to Schedules. Instead, debtor's counsel shall upload a list of added creditor names and addresses in text format under Creditor Maintenance in CM/ECF. An amended matrix is required if the creditor was listed on the original schedules but not the matrix (e.g., co-debtor).
D. Format for Amended Schedule C. Exempt Property. Any amendment to Schedule C must restate in full all claimed exemptions. All changes to previous exemptions contained in an amended Schedule C must be identified or footnoted on the amended schedule. If the debtor fails to meet either or both of these requirements, the debtor shall be deemed to have failed to meet the notice requirement for amended schedules under Fed. R. Bankr. P. 1009.
