no waiting period required under 362 to get problem stopped, but judges are
unlikely to award sanctions without repeated warnings. Atty fees are much
easier than punitive damages (no surprise).

Thank you, Steven.
Whether by 9011 or by 362(k), the root of my question lies in whether a
"safe harbor" period via service needs to be given before the filing of a
motion. 9011 absolutely requires the 21 days safe harbor period. But
362(k) appears to lack such a requirement. Nevertheless, the requirement
that the violation be "willful" appears to require the debtor to give actual
notice of the violation and an opportunity to fix, per In re Abrams. While
I realize that best practice probably requires me to give additional actual
notice even under 362(k), if it is fairly arguable that violating creditor
at least should have known about the petition prior to violating automatic
stay, then would I be generally successful in filing a 362(k) motion in
central district, los angeles? By success, I mean recovery of attorney's
fees and possibly punitive damages.
Warm regards,

Can also file an adversary - some judges prefer this.

In central district, is the 9011 procedure the only
available means of bringing about a motion for violation of automatic stay?
