Honorable John K. Sherwood

United States Bankruptcy Judge for the District of New Jersey

ZOOM LINK FOR JUDGE SHERWOOD'S REMOTE HEARINGS

 

 

In Chapter 7 cases, Chapter 11 cases and adversary proceedings, Judge Sherwood is conducting hearings in person. However, attorneys are welcome to attend via Zoom  rather than appearing in person. The only exception is matters which involve a substantial number of exhibits or evidentiary hearings. Then, in person appearances are necessary. If you are unsure whether an appearance via Zoom is permissible, please feel free to contact chambers to check.

To attend via Zoom, please simply use the Zoom link posted on this page. All parties must adhere to the Zoom appearance guidelines posted in the Trial tab below.

NOTEAll Chapter 13 hearings will continue to be held via Court Solutions.

Fee Orders in Chapter 13 cases – Attorneys who elect hourly billing and do not use the standard fee of $4,750 must use the new template entitled “Order Granting Allowances for Chapter 13 Fees (JKS)” which is available on the Court’s website under “Forms” and “All Local Forms.” The “Order Granting Supplemental Chapter 13 Fees” is inapplicable in such fee situations.

Important: All persons are strictly prohibited from making any recording of court proceedings, whether by video, audio, "screenshot," or otherwise. Violation of this prohibition may result in the imposition of monetary and non-monetary sanctions. The Clerk of the Court maintains an audio recording of all proceedings, which recording constitutes the official record of those proceedings.​
