Pursuant to Administrative Order 26-001, parties are required to use the following local form orders for specific motions, applications, or objections.  Highlighted areas in each document are required information.

In re: MANDATORY USE OF REQUIRED LOCAL FORM ORDERS Administrative Order No. 26-001 ADMINISTRATIVE ORDER MANDATING USE OF REQUIRED LOCAL FORM ORDERS The Court has determined that the use of uniform local form orders (“Required Local Form Orders”) that complement the Bankruptcy Code and Federal Rules of Bankruptcy Procedure will enhance the efficient administration of cases and help ensure uniformity and accuracy. For that reason, it is ORDERED: Effective April 30, 2026: 1. Mandatory Use of Required Local Form Orders. Once the Court adopts and posts a Required Local Form Order for a specific motion, application, or objection, parties will be required to use that form. A list of the Required Local Form Orders will be posted on the Court’s website (www.flnb.uscourts.gov) under the “Forms” page. a. The Clerk will notify the bar and the public of additions and amendments to that list by posting them on the Court’s website and directly notifying current ECF electronic filers via email and GovDelivery subscribers via GovDelivery. b. For motions, applications or objections for which the Court has not posted Required Local Form Orders, the Court strongly encourages parties to use Local Sample Orders, if available. 2. Material Alterations Prohibited. Required Local Form Orders must be used without material alterations; certain modifications are specifically authorized by the forms themselves. If a party believes a modification is necessary due to unique circumstances, the modification must be clearly identified in bold and underlined font. 3. Failure to use Required Local Form Orders. The failure to use a Required Local Form Order may result in the Court rejecting the submitted order or denying, disapproving, or overruling the underlying request for relief without prejudice. DONE and ORDERED on April 15, 2026.
