Rev. 05/10/19

MOTION FOR FINAL DECREE
CHAPTER 11 CASE

Overview:

After an estate is fully administered, the court, on its own motion or on motion of a party in interest, must enter a final decree closing the case. A motion for a final decree must certify that the estate is fully administered and list all pending adversary proceedings related to the case. The motion must be served on all secured creditors and any committee appointed under 11 U.S.C. § 1102, or its authorized agent. If no committee of unsecured creditors has been appointed under § 1102, the motion must be served on the creditors included on the list filed under F.R.B.P. 1007(d).

This filing should be accompanied by the Motion and Proposed Order.  When required by Local Bankruptcy Rule 9013-3, a Certificate of Service must also be filed.
