NOTICE OF OPPORTUNITY FOR HEARING Your rights may be affected. You should read this Document carefully and consult your attorney about your rights and the effect of this Document. If you do not want the Court to grant the motion, or you wish to have your views considered, you must file a written response to the motion with the Clerk of the United States Bankruptcy Court for the Western District of Oklahoma, 215 Dean A. McGee Avenue, Oklahoma City, OK 73102 no later than * days from the date of filing of the motion. You should also serve a file-stamped copy of the response to the undersigned [and others who are required to be served] and file a certificate or affidavit of service with the Court.

The moving party shall calculate the appropriate response time as allowed by applicable statute, rule, or order. The response time shall be that period set forth in the Notice of Opportunity for Hearing calculated from the date of entry of the request for relief on the docket regardless of manner of service, unless a different response time is prescribed by applicable statute, rule, or order in which event the longer response time shall apply.
