NOTICE OF AMENDMENT OF SCHEDULES IN CHAPTER 11 CASES

            Whenever the debtor or trustee in a chapter 11 case amends the debtor's schedules to change the amount, nature, classification or characterization of a debt owing to a creditor, the debtor or trustee promptly must transmit notice of the amendment to the creditor.

Comment

            This rule is derived from Former Local Bankruptcy Rule 53.

            The term "characterization," as used in this rule, includes a description of whether the debt is disputed or undisputed, fixed or contingent, and liquidated or unliquidated.
