In September 2024, the U.S. Bankruptcy Court for the District of Massachusetts issued a Notice regarding proposed amendments to the Local Rules.  The Court reviewed and incorporated the comments as appropriate and has transmitted the Updated Proposed Amendments to the Local Bankruptcy Rules to the U.S. District Court for the District of Massachusetts.  These updated rules will become effective on May 1, 2025, unless notified otherwise. Copies of the Proposed Amendments to the Local Bankruptcy Rules, the Updated Proposed Amendments to the Local Bankruptcy Rules, and a redline reflecting the changes can be found on our website under Massachusetts Local Bankruptcy Rules.
