UNITED STATES BANKRUPTCY COURT MIDDLE DISTRICT OF NORTH CAROLINA MEMORANDUM TO: FROM: RE: PARTIES IN ADVERSARY PROCEEDING CLERKS OFFICE, U. S. BANKRUPTCY COURT INSTRUCTIONS AND INFORMATION FOR PRETRIAL SCHEDULING MEMORANDUM ========================================================================= In accordance with Rule 26(f) of the Federal Rules of Civil Procedure and Bankruptcy Rule 7026, this Court requires that the parties to an adversary proceeding meet at least two weeks prior to the scheduled Pretrial. At such meeting, the parties are required to discuss the items described in Federal Rule 26(f). If the parties agree on a discovery plan, they must sign and file a Joint Scheduling Memorandum with the Court within 10 days after the previously described scheduling meeting. The parties must also prepare and attach to the memorandum a separate Scheduling Order. The Scheduling Order should set out a specific date that all final pre-trial disclosures shall be filed with the Court and served on the opposing counsel. In the event the Court signs the Scheduling Order, the initial pretrial hearing will be cancelled. If all matters in the Scheduling Memorandum are not agreed to by all parties, a separate Scheduling Memorandum must be filed by each party within 10 days after the scheduling meeting. Absent notification to the contrary, the Court will conduct the initial pretrial hearing when separate Scheduling Memorandums are filed. IN ANY EVENT, THE SCHEDULING MEMORANDUM(S) SHALL BE FILED NO LATER THAN FOUR DAYS (4) PRIOR TO THE SCHEDULED PRETRIAL HEARING. If a party files a request for additional time to file an answer, a proposed order should also be filed with the court, which addresses the scheduling of the pretrial hearing and the time for filing a Scheduling Memorandum. Attached is an example of such an Order. A copy of this memorandum (with attached Joint Scheduling Memorandum, Scheduling Order and Scheduling Memorandum) shall be served with the summons and complaint by the plaintiff upon each defendant.
