Every day bankruptcy clerks sent out millions of required notifications to creditors and parties in interest. Creditors can bypass the paper notification by designating an email address for service pursuant to Fed.R.Bankr.P. 9036. Now the Bankruptcy Court for the Southern District of Texas is seeking to compel high volume creditors to sign up for electronic noticing. On March 17, 2022, Judge Marvin Isgur instituted 328 orders requiring creditors to appear for a status conference through counsel to explain why they have not signed up for electronic noticing.
