The Holiday Season Means One Thing: Amendments to the Bankruptcy Rules!
In December 2024, the amendments to the Bankruptcy Rules became effective. Virtually all of the Bankruptcy Rules were amended as part of the general restyling to make them more easily understood and to make style and terminology consistent throughout the rules. These changes are intended to be stylistic only. Bankruptcy Rules 1007, 4004, 5009, 7001, and 9006 were also amended and new Bankruptcy Rule 8023.1 was added to the rules. Check out this chart detailing the amendments.
