Notes of Advisory Committee on Rules—1983This rule is adapted from subdivisions (a), (b) and (c) of Rule 77 F.R.Civ.P.
Notes of Advisory Committee on Rules—1987 AmendmentRule 9001, as amended, defines court to mean the bankruptcy judge or district judge before whom a case or proceeding is pending. Clerk means the bankruptcy clerk, if one has been appointed for the district; if a bankruptcy clerk has not been appointed, clerk means clerk of the district court.
Notes of Advisory Committee on Rules—1991 AmendmentSubdivision (c) is amended to refer to Rule 9006(a) for a list of legal holidays. Reference to F.R.Civ.P. is not necessary for this purpose.
Committee Notes on Rules—2008 AmendmentThe rule is amended to permit bankruptcy judges to hold hearings outside of the district in which the case is pending to the extent that the circumstances lead to the authorization of the court to take such action under the 2005 amendment to 28 U.S.C. §152(c). Under that provision, bankruptcy judges may hold court outside of their districts in emergency situations and when the business of the court otherwise so requires. This amendment to the rule is intended to implement the legislation.
