The new Local Bankruptcy Rules include the adoption of a Mortgage Modification Program and forms MMP-01 - MMP-12, Complex Chapter 11 Case Procedures, updated NextGen CM/ECF Procedures, and new Local Official Forms 101-108.

 

Additionally, the new Local Bankruptcy Rules establish the Honorable S. Martin Teel, Jr. Pro Bono Program (the "PBP") which aims to provide pro bono representation to qualifying pro se parties in adversary proceedings and evidentiary contested matters. The PBP is run by volunteer administrators from the bar, as appointed by the Court. Judge Gunn is accepting letters of interest in serving as a PBP panel administrator through August 31, 2022. Interested candidates should submit their letter and any relevant supporting material to chambers at Gunn_Chambers@dcb.uscourts.gov.
