Central District Consumer Bankruptcy Attorney's Association

Here is an interesting tentative from Judge Smith:
Strangely, counsel for both parties appear to have difficulty grasping and
complying with the simple requirements of Local Bankruptcy Rule 7016
-
1(b)
(2). For example, in her email to Atty R, Atty M states that "I will submit
the joint stipulation with all of your objections. Just
like other objections, they will be ruled on by the court at the time of
trial."
This is patently incorrect. The pretrial stipulation should not include
any "objections." It should simply state the undisputed facts and the
disputed facts. 7016
-
1(b)(2) does not provide for "objections."
If the parties have not agreed on a pretrial stipulation by the time of the
hearing, they are ordered to meet outside the courtroom until an agreed
draft is completed
no matter how long that takes.
