In re Farnham (24-30325-AEC)

This matter came before the court on motion of two creditors to extend the time to file to file a motion for reconsideration of an order, so that the motion was considered filed within the appeal period under Rule 8002. The creditors waited until the eleventh hour to file their motion to reconsider but encountered CM/ECF difficulties (not caused by the court), and were unable to file the motion within the appeal period of the order for which they sought reconsideration. The Court denied the motion based on the plain language of Rule 9006(b)(2), which expressly prohibits the extension of time for filing under Rules 7052, 9023, and 9024, all of which were cited by the creditors as bases for their motion for reconsideration. The court therefore denied the creditors motion to deem the late-filed motion for reconsideration timely or extend time for which to file.
