Transcribing the Proceedings; Filing the Transcript; Sending the Record
(a) REPORTER’S DUTIES.
(1) Proceedings Recorded Without a Court Reporter Present. If
proceedings are recorded without a reporter present, the person or service selected under bankruptcy court procedures to
transcribe the recording is the reporter for purposes of this
rule.
(2) Preparing and Filing the Transcript. The reporter must prepare and file a transcript as follows:
(A) Initial Steps. Upon receiving a transcript order under
Rule 8009(b), the reporter must file in the bankruptcy
court an acknowledgment showing when the order was received and when the reporter expects to have the transcript completed.
(B) Filing the Transcript. After completing the transcript,
the reporter must file it with the bankruptcy clerk, who
will notify the district, BAP, or circuit clerk of its filing.
(C) Extending the Time to Complete a Transcript. If the
transcript cannot be completed within 30 days after the
order has been received, the reporter must request an extension from the bankruptcy clerk. The clerk must enter
on the docket and notify the parties whether the extension
is granted.
(D) Failure to File on Time. If the reporter fails to file the
transcript on time, the bankruptcy clerk must notify the
bankruptcy judge.
(b) CLERK’S DUTIES.
(1) Sending the Record. Subject to Rule 8009(f) and (5) below,
when the record is complete, the bankruptcy clerk must send
to the clerk of the court where the appeal is pending either
the record or a notice that it is available electronically.
(2) Multiple Appeals. If there are multiple appeals from a
judgment, order, or decree, the bankruptcy clerk must send a
single record.
(3) Docketing the Record in the Appellate Court. Upon receiving
the record—or a notice that it is available electronically—the
district, BAP, or circuit clerk must enter that information on
the docket and promptly notify all parties to the appeal.
(4) If the Court Orders Paper Copies. If the court where the appeal is pending orders that paper copies of the record be provided, the clerk of that court must so notify the appellant. If
the appellant fails to provide them, the bankruptcy clerk
must prepare them at the appellant’s expense.
