Federal Courts Seek Feedback on Amendments to Rules

The Administrative Office of the U.S. Court is currently collecting public comments on two proposed rule change packages. 

Comments on an Oct. 16 rule package for interim bankruptcy rules are due by Wednesday, Nov. 13. 

The short deadline is necessitated by the forthcoming Small Business Reorganization Act of 2019, which goes into effect Feb. 19, 2020 – well before the normal three-year rulemaking process.

Comments on an Aug. 19 rule package for changes to appellate, bankruptcy and civil rules are due by Wednesday, Feb. 19, 2020.
