BANKR. RULE 9014

In re Khachikyan, 335 B.R. 121 (9th Cir. BAP 2005)

Rule 9014(d), included in a 2002 amendment to the rule, is intended to require a trial when

there is a genuine factual dispute. Furthermore, “[a]s a strategic matter, where one wants

discovery in a contested matter, it is generally too late to wait to the day of the hearing on the

merits to request to conduct discovery in the future.”

In re Nunez, 196 B.R. 150 (9th Cir. B.A.P. 1996)

Ambiguous local rules do not require lien creditor to notice hearing on objection to

debtor’s motion to avoid abstract of judgment
