NOTE: In compliance with LBR 5070-1, the party requesting a hearing must file in duplicate a
notice of the hearing, see Official Form No. 2, within three (3) days after being given notification
of the hearing date. A party need not request a hearing: if the party’s motion or other matter is
not ruled upon on the papers, the Court will set a hearing in due course. This form is intended for
use when the party knows in advance that a matter will require a hearing or to assure that a
hearing is already set if someone files an objection to the action the party proposes. It may also
be used when a party desires a hearing on a matter already ripe for a hearing and the Court has
not set a hearing
