What is the difference between a Request for Notice and a Notice of Appearance, and what event should I use for each?

Type: 
Procedure
Answer: 

Anyone may request to receive notices in a specific bankruptcy case or adversary proceeding by filing a "Request for Notices (No Attorney Appearance)." Attorneys wishing to file documents in a case (other than a proof of claim) or to notify the court of representation of a party in a case should file a "Notice of Appearance (Appearance of Attorney)." Attorneys appearing in Florida Northern Bankruptcy Court cases must be admitted to practices in the Northern District of Florida. Consult the U.S. District Court for the Northern District of Florida’s website for attorney admission information.
