COPIES OF NOTICE OF APPEAL FOR PRO SE PARTIES - Amended December 1, 2014

            Upon the filing of a notice of appeal, the appellant shall provide the Clerk with sufficient copies of the notice and address labels for all pro se parties to be served to permit the Clerk to comply with Bankruptcy Rule 8003(c).

Comment

           This rule is derived from Former Local Bankruptcy Rule 8004-1 and was renumbered to conform to the 2014 amendments to Part VIII of the Bankruptcy Rules and amended to require copies of the notice of appeal and address labels only for parties appearing pro se, which is consistent with the 2014 amendment to Bankruptcy Rule 8003(c).  For all other parties, service of the notice of appeal is by electronic means pursuant to Bankruptcy Rule 8001(c).

           Although the appellant is required to provide address labels, envelopes should not be provided.
