LBR 1015-1(b) provides the procedure. There are 3 steps required to achieve joint administration, and the steps are designed so that the process is clear for the court and for all parties involved. FIRST, achieving joint administration begins by the debtors (or trustee) filing a motion for joint administration. A hearing is not required. Debtors must file a Notice of Motion for Order Without Hearing under LBR 9013-1(q). SECOND, If the judge grants the motion, a form order will be entered that contains special instructions about joint administration and choosing which case docket is the sole docket on which all future documents will be filed (with limited exceptions). THIRD, the debtors must serve a notice on all creditors of all related cases that there is now one docket on which all documents must be filed. www.FormsWorkflow.com
