While SmartRules guides cover civil litigation only, we do like to keep our readers apprised of developments in other areas. It has recently come to our attention that, in response to pending amendments to the Federal Rules of Bankruptcy Procedure, many courts have proposed amendments to their local bankruptcy rules.

Here is a partial list of courts that have proposed amendments to their local bankruptcy rules:

No matter what court you’re filing in, always watch for new and updated rules.
