Rule 9011-4 Signatures.

  1. Any motion, pleading or other document requiring a signature must, following the signature, include the address and telephone number of the attorney or pro se filer.
     
  2. Any motion, pleading or other document requiring a signature that is electronically filed by a registered CM/ECF user must be filed as either (a) a document containing the signature of the person(s) signing said document or (b) a document displaying the name of the person(s) signing said document, preceded by an "/s/" ("electronic signature") and typed in the space where the signature would otherwise appear (e.g., "/s/ Jane Doe").  The electronic signature of the person on the document electronically filed shall constitute the signature of that person for purposes of Fed. R. Bankr. P. 9011, and the use of a person's password to file a document electronically shall not constitute the signature of, or a representation to the court by, the person whose password is used for such electronic filing for purposes of Fed. R. Bankr. P. 9011.  In the absence of a signature on a document electronically filed, the CM/ECF password used to file the document shall constitute a signature for purposes of Fed. R. Bankr. P. 9011.
     
  3. The filing of a proof of claim electronically with the clerk shall constitute the filing claimant’s approved signature by law. Electronic claimants are not required to be registered CM/ECF users. Electronically filed proofs of claim are deemed signed upon electronic submission with the Clerk.
