Reaff hearings - who sets them when Debtor is in pro per?

No, they aren't signed by the judge. They're just just sitting there.
I will call the clerks.

In LA, there are several Judges that have banded together to share their Reaffs so that 1 Judge hears ALL those other Judges' Reaffs each month. The Judges rotate on a wheel who is responsible each month. That is why often, in LA, your case judge is XX but the Judge and Courtroom for the Reaff is YY.

I thought they automatically go for hearing since the debtor has signed Part E (the motion), and the box is checked "hardship" on the front page. However, these reaffs do not seem to be getting set for hearing in my cases. Does the debtor have to request a hearing date and send out the notice?
