Agreed orders
General Information
Since only a judge can issue an order, the Bankruptcy Court for the Southern District of Indiana does not allow the filing of documents entitled Agreed Order, or that contain any order language such as "It is ordered that..." or "....this Agreed Order," or that include a signature line for the judge.
The proper way to seek the court's blessing on an agreement is as follows:
Resolving an issue already on the docket
Use the Agreed Entry (Resolves an Issue) event. The document should be titled Agreed Entry, not Agreed Order. The court will prepare and enter a separate order approving or disapproving the agreement. Refer to the procedure for further information on filing requirements.
Resolving an issue that is not yet on the docket
Title your document Agreed Motion for/to....., and file it using the regular motion event that would have been used had the document not been agreed to. ECF will allow you to indicate that the document is an agreed motion. View full instructions and filing requirements
For example, to file an Agreed Motion for Relief from Stay, use the Motion for Relief from Stay event.

Order in No Asset Case
|
General Information
This order is entered after the Objection to Discharge deadline passes in Chapter 7 cases, or 31 days after the filing of the Notice of Plan Completion in a Chapter 13 case, if:
Chapter 12 cases: Financial Management is not required to be filed. Certification of Eligibility and DSO Notice are not required to be filed in non-individual Chapter 12 cases - only the Motion for Entry of Discharge is required.
The Order of No Discharge is not issued if a Motion Objecting to Discharge has been granted.
The Order of No Discharge deems the debtor ineligible to receive a discharge.
Before the order is entered, the debtor may seek further time to file Financial Management and/or Motion for Entry of Discharge/Certification of Eligibility by filing a Motion for Extension of Time. Once the order has been entered, the debtor will also need to file a Motion for Relief from Order of No Discharge along with the missing documents in order to receive a discharge.
