IN MATTER OF CARY (Bankr.N.D.Ind. 2005)


IN THE MATTER OF: PATSY DIANNE CARY Debtor.

Case No. 05-12642.United States Bankruptcy Court, N.D. Indiana, Fort Wayne Division.
September 7, 2005

DECISION AND ORDER
ROBERT GRANT, Bankruptcy Judge

The notice of motion and opportunity to object which debtor (hereinafter “Movant”) served in connection with her Motion to Avoid Lien does not comply with the requirements of N.D. Ind. L.B.R. B-2002-2 because:

a. The notice does not “contain a brief summary of the ground for the motion or have a copy of the motion attached to it.” N.D. Ind. L.B.R. B-2002-2(c)(4). Although the notice states that a copy of the motion is attached to it, there is no attachment to the notice filed with the court.
b. The notice does not sufficiently describe the property on which the lien is held.

Since creditors and parties in interest have not been given appropriate notice of the motion and the opportunity to object thereto, the court cannot grant it at this time. Movant shall prepare and serve an Amended Notice of Motion and Opportunity to Object which complies with N.D. Ind. L.B.R. B-2002-2 and file proof thereto within fourteen (14) days of this date. See, N.D. Ind. L.B.R. B-9013-4(a). The failure to do so will result in the motion being denied without prejudice and without further notice.

SO ORDERED.
