On December 20, 2019, the Court adopted amendments to its Local Bankruptcy Rules following a period of public comment. Since that time, the Executive Committee of the Judicial Conference of the United States has approved interim rules to be adopted locally for the processing of subchapter V Chapter 11 cases. This subchapter was created as part of the Small Business Reorganization Act of 2019. The interim rules are silent as to a bar date for the filing of claims in subchapter V cases and this amendment addresses that issue.

3003-1. Unless otherwise ordered by the Court, and except as provided in FRBP 3003(c)(3), proofs of claim or interest must be filed pursuant to FRBP 3003 and within 70 days after the date of the order for relief. 90 days after the first date set for the meeting of creditors called pursuant to 11 U.S.C. § 341(a). If the claimant is a governmental unit, the proof of claim or interest must be filed within 180 days after the date of the order for relief, or at such a later time as the Federal Rules of Bankruptcy Procedure or the Court may provide. For chapter 11 cases filed under Subchapter V, all claims – including by governmental units – must be filed within 70 days after the date of the order for relief.

IT IS FURTHER ORDERED that the effective date for this change will be February 1, 2020.
