UNITED STATES BANKRUPTCY COURT

FOR THE DISTRICT OF MARYLAND



FORWARD

A draft of proposed Local Bankruptcy Rules dated November 9, 1998, was circulated and published on the web information center for the Bankruptcy Bar Association of Maryland and on the website of the American Bankruptcy Institute. Written comments and suggestions were solicited.

The Judges are indebted to the members of the Bar who responded. As a result of the comments, further changes were made in the Rules. The Judges of this court wish to thank everyone who participated in the process of creating an updated set of Local Rules for the United States Bankruptcy Court for the District of Maryland.

The Rules changes are summarized in the introduction that follows. There are no comments on minor grammatical or stylistic changes.

These Rules take effect on May 1, 1999, and govern all proceedings in bankruptcy cases thereafter commenced and, insofar as just and practicable, all proceedings in bankruptcy cases then pending.

PAUL MANNES

Chief Judge
