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


IN THE MATTER OF: DOUGLAS ROBERT TOPOLSKI, JILL MAUREEN TOPOLSKI, Debtor.

Case No. 05-40192.United States Bankruptcy Court, N.D. Indiana, Hammond Division, Lafayette.
July 18, 2006

DECISION AND ORDER
ROBERT GRANT, Bankruptcy Judge

The notice of motion and opportunity to object which debtors (hereinafter “Movant”) served in connection with their motion to avoid the lien of Unity Surgical Center does not comply with the requirements of N.D. Ind. L.B.R. B-2002-2 because the notice does not adequately “state the relief sought” by the motion. N.D. Ind. L.B.R. B-2002-2(c)(3). The notice does not sufficiently describe the property subject to the lien.

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 thereof 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.
