(a) Motion for an Extension of Time May Be Ruled on Before Expiration of Response Period. A
motion for an extension of time to file a brief is a motion for a procedural order under Federal Rule of
Bankruptcy Procedure 8013(b), which may be ruled on at any time without the court awaiting a response.
(b) Disposition of Certain Motion. A motion for an extension of time should be made at least 3 days in
advance of the due date for filing the brief. A timely first request for an extension of 14 days or less
ordinarily will be granted. An additional extension will not be granted unless the ground for extension was
not foreseeable when the first request was made.
