DEPOSITIONS UPON ORAL EXAMINATION MORE THAN 100 MILES FROM COURTHOUSE

            If a proposed deposition upon oral examination is sought to be taken at a location more than one hundred (100) miles from the courthouse, the Court may provide in any order entered pursuant to Bankruptcy Rule 7030 that, prior to the examination, the party seeking to take the deposition shall pay the expense of the attendance of one attorney for each adverse party, or expected adverse party, including reasonable attorneys' fees. Unless the Court orders otherwise, any amounts paid pursuant to this subdivision shall be a taxable cost in the event that the party taking the deposition is awarded costs of the adversary proceeding.

Comment

           This rule is derived from Former Local Bankruptcy Rule 24 and is an adaptation of Civil Rule 30.1 of the Local District Rules.

           This title of this rule was stylistically amended in 2016 to conform to the language used in Local Rule 7027-1.  No substantive change was intended.
