11 U.S.C. §362
FRBP 4001, 9006(c)(2)
LBR 4001-1

The Court schedules special times on the weekly Court docket for hearings on Motions for Relief from the Automatic Stay. Please refer to the Court’s website, In-Person vs. Virtual Participation In-Court Hearings Effective 9/20/2023), for the scheduling of relief stay motions and appearances in Court on those motions. Motions for Relief from Stay are scheduled for a preliminary hearing within 30 days of being filed.

It is advisable that the motions be filed as stand-alone motions, as opposed to including multiple prayers for relief. Local Bankruptcy Rule 4001-1 addresses stay relief.

Motions for Relief from Stay are standard motions as far as CM/ECF filing is concerned. They are under the Bankruptcy Events category > Motions > “Other Motions / Applications” > “Relief from Stay -BK Motion” in the CM/ECF dictionary menu.

If and when applicable, the appropriate Local Bankruptcy Form Order must be used when uploading the order granting the stay relief motion.
