`
`Emergency Scheduling Procedures. If a movant or applicant other than the
`
`Debtors determines that a Request for Relief requires emergency or expedited relief, the movant
`
`or applicant shall contact (a) the attorneys for (i) the Debtors and (ii) each Official Committee, if
`
`applicable, by telephone and request that the Request for Relief be considered on an expedited
`
`basis; and (b) the U.S. Trustee. If the Debtors or any Official Committee disagree with the
`
`movant’s or applicant’s request for emergency or expedited relief, the movant or applicant shall
`
`(a) inform the Court of the disagreement by telephone and (b) arrange by email to Chambers for
`
`a Chambers conference, telephonic or in-person, to discuss the disagreement. If the Court agrees
`
`with the movant or applicant regarding the necessity for expedited consideration, the movant or
`
`applicant may, by order to show cause, request an expedited hearing.

`of the objection deadline; (c) the parties on whom any objection is to be served; and (d) the
`
`Omnibus Hearing date at which the party intends to present the Request for Relief. The notice
`
`may also include a statement that the relief requested therein may be granted, pursuant to Local
`
`Rule 9074-1, without a hearing if no objection is timely filed and served in accordance with the
`
`Case Management Procedures (each, a “Presentment Notice”). Subject to Section E of these
`
`Case Management Procedures, if the notice filed with a Request for Relief includes a
`
`Presentment Notice, after the objection deadline has passed and if no objection has been filed
`
`and served in accordance with these Case Management Procedures, counsel to the party who
`
`filed the Request for Relief may file a certification that no objection has been filed or served on
