Upon the filing of any proceeding under Chapter 9 of the Bankruptcy Code, the clerk will not assign such proceeding to the calendar of any judge, but will immediately inform the chief judge of such proceedings. The chief judge will thereupon inform the chief judge of the Court of Appeals for the Seventh Circuit of such proceeding and request that the latter designate pursuant to 11 U.S.C. §921(b) the judge to conduct the case.

Committee Note: Section 921(b) of the Bankruptcy Code provides that the chief judge of the Circuit will designate the judge to preside over any case filed under Chapter 9. This rule establishes procedures to effectuate that provision.
