Time to File. Within 14 days after being served, a party may file and serve objections. They must identify each proposed finding or conclusion objected to and state the grounds for objecting. A party may respond to another party’s objections within 14 days after being served with a copy.

Ordering a Transcript. Unless the district judge orders otherwise, a party filing objections must promptly order a transcript of the record, or the parts of it that all parties agree are—or the bankruptcy judge considers to be—sufficient.

Extending the Time. On request made before the time to file objections expires, the bankruptcy judge may, for cause, extend any party’s time to file for no more than 21 days after the time otherwise expires. But a request made within 21 days after that time expires may be granted upon a showing of excusable neglect.

must review de novo—on the record or after receiving additional evidence—any part of the bankruptcy judge’s findings of fact or conclusions of law to which specific written objection has been made under (b); and

may accept, reject, or modify the proposed findings of fact or conclusions of law, take additional evidence, or remand the matter to the bankruptcy judge with instructions.
