Addition of Local Bankruptcy Rule 1016-1 Suggestion of Death:

The Court currently does not have a requirement that an attorney file a Suggestion of Death when a debtor dies. LBR 1016-1 Suggestion of Death is proposed to provide the mechanism to ensure all parties are noticed when a debtor dies during the pendency of the case.   Click here for the memorandum from the Clerk of Court.
