The procedure you are referring to is the one Zurzolo was talking about
at the meeting he attended on lien stripping, but as far as I know that
has not been implemented. Keith H. or Warren B. who are in court all
the time probably know more about that.
VK, for example, does not have a consent calendar, and her hearings on
confirmation are months out as well. I filed a case with her on 6/30,
went to the 341A today, and the confirmation is set for 11/24. That's
essentially 5 months from filing.
My guess is that it is just that the calendars are too full and there
are no legal requirements for the confirmation date, just the 341A
hearings in relation to filing date.
It definitely slows our cash flow and gives more time for clients to
screw up on plan or mortgage payments prior to confirmation. On the
other hand, maybe more clients get their act together given more time.

Mates:
I've been getting confirmation hearing dates for clients for 4 to over 6
months in the future. Are the judges implementing different confirmation
procedures? I recall that at a CDCBAA meeting, a presenter mentioned that a
judge was going to set confirmation hearings for a date far into the future
but if counsel and clients satisfied all requisites sooner (e.g., by the
341(a) meeting date), the trustee could place the case into a different
track and the plan would be confirmed sooner. Can someone confirm this and
has more detailed information on the procedure?
