Until further notice, when filing a new Chapter 11 petition, the CM/ECF optional module that automatically assigns a judge in a Chapter 11 case has been disabled. If upon the filing of a new Chapter 11 petition you receive the message in the image noted below, please disregard the message as a judge will be assigned to the Chapter 11 case as soon as practicable.

First Day Motions, Emergency Motions, and Expedited Hearing Requests. When filing first day motions pursuant to LBR 2081-1, emergency motions or expedited hearing motions, there is no need to note a judge on the motion and accompanying documents if a judge has not been assigned to the Chapter 11 case. The Court will set a hearing date on those motions once a judge is assigned to the case. Movants filing expedited or emergency relief must still comply with the provisions of LBR 9075-1.
LBR 9013-1 Motions. Please wait for a judge assignment in the case before the LBR 9013-1 notice, motion, proposed order, and certificate of service is filed so that the appropriate LBR 9013-1 docket date may be selected on the assigned judge’s 9013-1 availability calendar.
