IN MATTER OF HOVEY (Bankr.N.D.Ind. 2006)


IN THE MATTER OF: SHAWN A. HOVEY SHANNON S. HOVEY Debtors.

Case No. 05-15953.United States Bankruptcy Court, N.D. Indiana, Fort Wayne Division.
January 25, 2006

DECISION AND ORDER
ROBERT GRANT, Bankruptcy Judge

The notice of motion and opportunity to object which DaimlerChrysler Services (hereinafter “Movant”) served in connection with its motion to approve stipulation abandoning personal property 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.

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.
