In re: LISA M. MAYO, Chapter 7, Debtor. LISA MAYO, Plaintiff, v. UNION BANK, Defendant.

ORDER GRANTING WAIVER OF REGISTRATION REQUIREMENT OF Vt. LBR 2090-1(a)

COLLEEN BROWN, Bankruptcy Judge

WHEREAS Vt. LBR 2090-1(a) requires that all attorneys register for the Electronic Case Filing System as a pre-requisite to filing papers in this Court, unless such registration is excused by the Court; and

The deadline for such registration was originally set for the date when the Electronic Case Filing System was fully imp lemented, which was April 2, 2002. See Standing Order #02-1. By Standing Order #02-1, however, this original deadline was extended to October 17, 2002. Thereafter, the registration deadline was further modified by Standing Order #02-2 (ordering that any attorney who registered for the Electronic Case Filing System by October 31, 2002, or who had registered for training by October 31, 2002, would be considered in compliance with Vt. LBR 2090-1(a)).

WHEREAS, on November 23, 2004, attorney Anthony B. Lamb filed a Motion to Waive the CM/ECF Filing Requirement (doc. #27), alleging, inter alia, that he "does not have a general practice in bankruptcy court;" and

WHEREAS, the Court has been able to determine from its own records that Attorney Lamb typically files papers in fewer than one bankruptcy case per year and does not file papers to initiate or litigate adversary proceedings in this Court.

THE COURT FINDS that, based upon this filing data, it appears the burden which electronic filing would place upon Attorney Lamb is greater than the burden his filing of cases in a conventional fashion would place upon this Court.

THEREFORE, Attorney Lamb's Motion to Waive the CM/ECF Filing Requirement is GRANTED subject to the following limitations:

1. The waiver of the requirement for filing cases electronically will automatically expire if and when Attorney Lamb files papers in more than 3 separate proceedings or files more than 15 documents during any single calendar year; and

2. This waiver shall expire five years from the date of this Order unless, prior to expiration, Attorney Lamb can show cause why this waiver should be extended.

SO ORDERED.
