         show-cause hr'g
Each of the above was scheduled as a noncontingent, liquidated, undisputed debt, and each proof of claim contained sufficient information for debtors' counsel to match the claims with the scheduled debts. Nonetheless, the MacFarlands' attorney objected to each claim on the basis that the debt and amount was disputed, and that the proof of claim contained insufficient documentation to substantiate the claim. Debtors' counsel submitted proposed orders striking and disallowing claims when unopposed, and withdrew the claims objections when opposed. The conduct of Debtors' counsel had the appearance of a concerted effort to either avoid reasonable review of the claims register as required by Local Rule 2083-1(B) or to improperly achieve favorable results for his clients. The court accordingly conducted a show-cause hearing on October 12, 2011 at 8:30 a.m. to address whether sanctions should be imposed and whether the orders at ECF Nos. 127, 128, 129, and 130 should be vacated pursuant to Fed. R. Bankr.P. 9024 incorporating, inter alia, Fed.R.Civ.P. 60(b)(3), (b)(6), and (d)(3).
*863 At the October 12th hearing, Debtors' counsel argued that the claim objections did not violate Rule 9011(b) because there is no binding opinion in this district which would have prohibited them. Debtors' counsel was referring to two published opinions in this district (cited in the discussion section below) which point out that such claim objections are improper. But even if those opinions were binding rather than persuasive, it would not have been those opinions which prohibited these objections. It is Rule 9011(b) itself which prohibits such objections. Debtors' counsel made no reasonable inquiry before filing the objectionshe made no basic inquiry before filing the objections. Even his argument in defense against the Order to Show Cause violated Rule 9011(b)(2), but the court limits this sanctions order to the improperly filed claim objections.

B. The Hurtado Case
Debtor Onelia Hurtado filed schedules on January 12, 2011. See [ECF No. 9], Case No. 10-49589-JKO. Schedule F listed a number of debts as neither contingent, unliquidated, nor disputed. See id. at 15-23. Claims were filed corresponding to a number of the scheduled debts, and just over three weeks before the July 13, 2011 confirmation hearing, Ms. Hurtado's attorney filed the following claims objections:

Each of the above was scheduled as a noncontingent, liquidated, undisputed debt, and each proof of claim contained sufficient information for debtors' counsel to match the claims with the scheduled debts. Nonetheless, Ms. Hurtado's attorney objected to each claim on either the basis that the proof of claim contained insufficient documentation to substantiate the claim, or that the amount was disputed. Debtor's counsel submitted proposed orders striking claims when the debtor had conceded in her schedules that the debts were due and owing in substantially the same amounts. The court conducted a show-cause hearing on October 12, 2011 to determine: (1) whether Debtor's counsel violated Fed. R. Bankr.P. 9011(b) by filing the claim objections; (2) if so, whether Debtor's counsel should be sanctioned; (3) whether the claim objections should be overruled; and (4) whether the order at ECF No. 99 should be vacated pursuant to Fed. R. Bankr.P. 9024 incorporating, inter alia, Fed.R.Civ.P. 60(b)(3), (b)(6), and (d)(3). Further, at the September 7, 2011 continued claim objection hearing, the court placed Debtor's counsel on notice that the October 12, 2011 show-cause hearing "would not go well" if the court were to determine that any of the relevant claim objections were not served upon creditors. Debtor's counsel did not address the apparent lack of service regarding ECF Nos. 88 & 91 at the October 12th show-cause hearing.

C. The Garcia Case
Debtor Gabriel and Madelyn Garcia filed schedules on November 29, 2010. See [ECF No. 10], Case No. 10-43602-JKO. Schedule F listed a number of debts as neither contingent, unliquidated, nor disputed. See id. at 18-39. Claims were filed corresponding to a number of the scheduled debts, and just over two weeks before the July 13, 2011 confirmation hearing, *866 the Garcias' attorney filed the following claims objections:

Each of the above was scheduled as a noncontingent, liquidated, undisputed debt, and each proof of claim contained sufficient information for debtors' counsel to match the claims with the scheduled debts. Nonetheless, the Garcias' attorney objected to each claim on the basis that the proof of claim contained insufficient documentation to substantiate the claim. Debtors' counsel submitted proposed orders striking claims when the debtors had conceded in their schedules that the debts were due and owing in substantially the same amounts. The court conducted a show-cause hearing on October 12, 2011 to determine whether the Garcias' attorney filed each of the above objections in violation of Fed. R. Bankr.P. 9011(b) and, because the Garcias' attorney is the same attorney who represents Onelia Hurtado, supra, whether the claim objections in their entirety constitute more than a series of discrete Rule 9011(b) violations, but rather a fraud upon creditors and this court. The October 12th hearing also addressed, of course, whether the claim objections should be overruled.

D. The Ahringer Case
Debtors Keith & Nancy Ahringer filed schedules on May 7, 2011. See [ECF No. 1], Case No. 11-22573-JKO. Schedule F listed a number of debts as neither contingent, unliquidated, nor disputed. See id. at 20-23. Claims were filed corresponding to a number of the scheduled debts, and the Ahringers' attorney filed the following claim objections before the September 7, 2011 confirmation hearing:

Both of the above were scheduled as noncontingent, liquidated, undisputed debts, and each proof of claim contained sufficient information for debtors' counsel to match the claims with the scheduled debts. Nonetheless, the Ahringers' attorney objected to each claim on the basis that the debt and amount were disputed, and that the proof of claim contained insufficient documentation to substantiate the claim. Debtors' counsel submitted proposed orders striking and disallowing the claims, and the court conducted a show-cause hearing on October 12, 2011 to determine whether sanctions should be imposed upon Debtors' counsel for violating Fed. R. Bankr.P. 9011(b).

E. The Mullennix Case
Debtor Lisa Marie Mullennix filed schedules on May 2, 2011. See [ECF No. 11], Case No. 11-19051-JKO. Schedule F listed a number of debts as neither contingent, unliquidated, nor disputed.

All of the above were scheduled as noncontingent, liquidated, undisputed debts, and each proof of claim contained sufficient information for debtor's counsel to match the claims with the scheduled debts. Nonetheless, Ms. Mullenix's attorney objected to each claim on the basis that the proof of claim contained insufficient documentation to substantiate the claim. Debtor's counsel submitted proposed orders striking and disallowing each of the claims in their entirety. The court conducted a show-cause hearing on October 12, 2011 at which Debtor's counsel conceded that the claim objections were improper, and specified measures already taken in his office to ensure that repeat conduct would not occur in the future.
In the midst of an undesirably congested calendar (the courtroom was standing room only), the court instructed Debtor's counsel to submit a proposed order discharging the order to show cause in light of counsel's explanation of how the claim objections were filed, as well as the measures taken to cure the problem in his office. Counsel also volunteered to donate $500.00 to the Bankruptcy Bar Foundation for the benefit of pro bono legal services in this district before submitting the proposed order. Upon further review in chambers without the scheduling pressures of the packed courtroom, the court concluded that such a remedy was not in keeping with the text or spirit of Fed. R. Bankr.P. 9011(c)(2) and continued the matter to October 26, 2011. See [ECF No. 87]. At the October 26th hearing, Debtor's counsel stated that he had not yet made the $500.00 donation to the Bankruptcy Bar Foundation, and this was perfectly appropriate because he had not yet submitted any proposed order discharging the order to show cause. At the continued *872 October 26th hearing, the court again addressed the issue of Rule 9011 sanctions. The court explained that, while the remedial actions of Debtor's counsel were noteworthy and highly professional, the failure of Debtor's counsel to sufficiently supervise his employees in this matter was of concern. Ms. Mullenix's attorney is also the Ahringers' attorney, supra, and at the conclusion of the October 26th hearing the court took the issue of Rule 9011 sanctions under advisement.

F. The Alvarez Case
Debtor Maria T. Alvarez filed schedules on January 2, 2011. See [ECF No. 1], Case No. 11-10002-JKO. Schedule F listed a number of debts as neither contingent, unliquidated, nor disputed. See id. at 14-19. Claims were filed corresponding to a number of the scheduled debts, and Ms. Alvarez's attorney filed the following claims objections before the August 10, 2011 confirmation hearing,:

Each of the above was scheduled as a noncontingent, liquidated, undisputed debt, and each proof of claim contained sufficient information for debtor's counsel to match the claims with the scheduled debts. Nonetheless, Ms. Alvarez's attorney objected to each claim on either the basis that the proof of claim contained insufficient *873 documentation to substantiate the claim, or that the amount was disputed. Debtor's counsel submitted a proposed order striking the claims when the debtor had conceded in her schedules that the debts were due and owing in substantially the same amounts. The court conducted a show-cause hearing on October 12, 2011 to determine whether Debtor's counsel violated Fed. R. Bankr.P. 9011(b) when he filed the claim objections. The October 12th hearing also addressed, of course, whether the claim objections should be overruled.

G. The Kirkland Case
Debtor Carole V. Kirkland filed schedules on March 21, 2011. See [ECF No. 1], Case No. 11-17277-JKO. Schedule F listed two debts as neither contingent, unliquidated, nor disputed. See id. at 16. Claims were filed corresponding to both of the scheduled debts, and just over two weeks before the August 10, 2011 confirmation hearing, the Ms. Kirkland's attorney filed the following claim objections:

Both of the above were scheduled as a noncontingent, liquidated, undisputed debt, and each proof of claim contained sufficient information for debtors' counsel to match the claims with the scheduled debts. Nonetheless, Ms. Kirkland's attorney objected to each claim on the basis that the proof of claim contained insufficient documentation to substantiate the claim. Debtor's counsel submitted a proposed order striking the claims in their entirety when the debtor had conceded in her schedules that one of the debts was due and owing in substantially the same amount and the other was undisputedly due and owing in 77% of the claim amount. Only two debts were listed on Schedule F and it strains credulity that Debtor's counsel could have in good faith believed that the matching claims should not be allowed. The court accordingly conducted a show-cause hearing on October 12, 2011 to determine whether the claim objections were *874 filed in violation of Fed. R. Bankr.P. 9011(b) and in objective bad faith.
At the October 12th show-cause hearing, Debtor's counsel took full responsibility, acknowledged that the claim objections were improper, but argued that there was no bad faith here because the Debtor did not "need" these claim objections to be sustained. But Debtor's counsel prosecuted the objections and submitted proposed orders striking and disallowing the claims. The fact that this is a "pot" plan and that disallowance of these claims would have no effect upon the amount to be paid by the Debtor into plan is of little importbecause counsel's actions would have affected the creditors' distribution under the plan. While the objections may not have been filed in violation of Rule 9011(b)(1) (because it made no difference to the Debtor), the objections were certainly filed in violation of Rule 9011(b)(3) (because Debtor's counsel did not conduct a reasonableor even basicinquiry before filing the objections). The failure by Debtor's counsel to conduct this inquiry caused the court to conclude that the objections were meritless. Debtor's counsel accordingly submitted a proposed order overruling the objections after the October 12th show-cause hearing, and that order was entered. See [ECF No. 38]. The court took the issue of Rule 9011 sanctions under advisement.

H. The Santana Case
Debtors Eliezer and Rosa M. Santana filed schedules on January 31, 2011. See [ECF No. 8], Case No. 11-11106-JKO. Schedule F listed a number of debts as neither contingent, unliquidated, nor disputed. See id. at 16-21. Claims were filed corresponding to a number of the scheduled debts, and about a month before the August 10, 2011 confirmation hearing, the Santanas' attorney filed the following claims objections:

Each of the above was scheduled as a noncontingent, liquidated, undisputed debt, and each proof of claim contained sufficient information for debtors' counsel to match the claims with the scheduled debts. Nonetheless, the Santanas' attorney objected to each claim on specious grounds, and submitted proposed orders striking claims when the debtor had conceded in her schedules that the debts were due and owing in substantially the same amounts. The court accordingly conducted a show-cause hearing on October 12, 2011 to determine whether the Santanas' attorney filed each of the above objections in violation of Fed. R. Bankr.P. 9011(b) and, of course, whether the claim objections should be overruled. The Santanas' attorney is also the attorney in the Hurtado case (No. 10-49589-JKO), supra, and the Garcia case (No. 10-43602-JKO), supra. The orders setting the October 12, 2011 show-cause placed the Debtors' attorney on notice that the persistent pattern gave rise to the inference that this attorney's behavior is more than a series of discreet Rule 9011(b) violations, but a concerted strategy to either avoid diligent claims review or to artificially reduce the amount of allowed claims. The show-cause hearing accordingly addressed whether this attorney's behavior in its totality constitutes a concerted fraud upon creditors and upon this court.
At the October 12th show-cause hearing, Debtor's counsel made a statement on the record that (roughly paraphrased) she merely intended to lower the Debtors' Chapter 13 plan payments but had no intent to defraud. She apparently did not realize that this is an admission that she filed baseless claim objections to improperly strike claims to artificially reduce Chapter 13 plan payments. How this is not an attempt to defraud her clients' creditors isinteresting. At the October 12th hearing, Debtors' counsel conceded that the attempts in at least some of her cases were aimed to artificially reduce the amount of allowed claims such that her clients would be, in her view, eligible to be debtors under Chapter 13 despite 11 U.S.C. § 109(e). After the hearing, Debtors' counsel apparently "saw the writing on the wall" and filed a Notice of Voluntary Dismissal on October 13, 2011. The court took the issue of Rule 9011 sanctions under advisement.

I. The Beckford Case
Debtor Andrea Olevia Beckford filed schedules on February 25, 2011. See [ECF No. 1], Case No. 11-14995-JKO. Schedule F listed a number of debts as neither contingent, unliquidated, nor disputed. See id. at 11-13. Claims were filed corresponding to a number of the scheduled debts, and Ms. Beckford's attorney filed the following claims objections:

Each of the above was scheduled as a noncontingent, liquidated, undisputed debt, and each proof of claim contained sufficient information for debtor's counsel to match the claims with the scheduled debts. Nonetheless, Ms. Beckford's attorney objected to each claim on either the basis that the interest rate and finance charges were disputed (which somehow justified striking and disallowing the claim in its entirety) or that the entire amount was disputed. Debtor's counsel submitted proposed orders striking the claims when the debtor had conceded in her schedules that the debts were due and owing in substantially the same amounts. The court accordingly conducted a show-cause hearing on October 12, 2011 to determine whether Ms. Beckford's attorney filed each of the above objections in violation of Fed. R. Bankr.P. 9011(b). Following the hearing, the court took the issue of sanctions under advisement.

J. The De Pena Case
Debtor Hector De Pena filed schedules on March 22, 2011. See [ECF No. 10], Case No. 11-14554-JKO. Schedule F listed a number of debts as neither contingent, *878 unliquidated, nor disputed. See id. at 11-12. Claims were filed corresponding to a number of the scheduled debts, and Mr. De Pena's attorney filed the following claims objections:
ECF No. 44 Objection to Claim # 2-1 of Candica, LLC (for Barclays Bank/Spirit Air)
Basis: lack of documentation
Claim # 2-1 Amt.$1,545.73
Schedule F Amt.$1,622.00 (undisputed & owed to Barclays Bank)
Last four digits of acct. # listed on proof of claim5542

ECF No. 44 Objection to Claim # 3-1 of Portfolio Recovery Assoc. (for Household Finance)

Claim # 3-1 Amt.$5,750.92
Schedule F Amt.$5,750.92 (undisputed & owed to Household Finance)
Status eOrder # 269267 submitted
striking claim
Both of the above were scheduled as noncontingent, liquidated, undisputed debts, and each proof of claim contained sufficient information for debtor's counsel to match the claims with the scheduled debts. Nonetheless, Mr. De Pena's attorney objected to each claim on the basis of lack of documentation. Debtor's counsel submitted proposed orders striking the claims when the debtor had conceded in his schedules that the debts were due and owing in substantially the same amounts. The court accordingly conducted a show-cause hearings on October 12, 2011 and October 26, 2011 to determine whether Mr. De Pena's attorney filed both of the above objections in violation of Fed. R. Bankr.P. 9011(b) and, of course, whether the objections should be overruled.
The Debtor's attorney argued at the October 12th hearing that the claim objections were proper. In the midst of an undesirably congested calendar (the courtroom was standing room only), counsel's demeanor seemed righteous and her arguments seemed persuasive. The court directed her to submit a proposed order discharging the order to show cause, but upon further review in chambers without the scheduling pressures of the packed courtroom, the court concluded that such a remedy was not in keeping with the text or spirit of Fed. R. Bankr.P. 9011(c)(2). The court accordingly did not enter the proposed order submitted by counsel and continued the matter to October 26, 2011. See [ECF No. 67].
At the October 26th hearing, Debtor's counsel again argued that her claim objections were proper, and attempted to compare them to other objections which were sustained on that morning's calendar. The attempt by Debtor's counsel to compare her claim objections to those in In re Rozier, No. 11-17299-JKO (Bankr. S.D.Fla.), is not persuasive. Her claim objections were easily matched to debt which was scheduled as undisputed, liquidated, and noncontingent. The claim objections in Rozier were not. As such, Mr. De Pena's attorney filed claim objections in contravention of relevant and clear concessions in Mr. De Pena's schedules. To do so is to file a claim objection in objective bad faith such that sanctions are warranted under Rule 9011. At the conclusion of the October 26th hearing, the court took the issue of Rule 9011 sanctions under advisement.

K. The Lewis Case
On November 11, 2010, Debtor Patrick S. Lewis filed Schedule D listing GMAC as an undisputed creditor in the amount of $463,792.00 secured by collateral valued at *879 $367,000.00. See Case No. 10-40253-JKO, ECF No. 15, at 8. GMAC filed Proof of Claim #5-1 on December 28, 2010 in the amount of $469,560.83. On August 8, 2011, Debtor's counsel filed an objection to Claim #5-1 (disputing both liability and amount) and scheduled the matter for a September 7, 2011 hearing. See [ECF Nos. 133 & 134]. On the day of the September 7th hearing, Debtor's counsel filed an Amended Schedule D listing the debt owed to GMAC as disputed, and on September 8, 2011 Debtor's counsel submitted proposed eOrder #275229 striking GMAC's claim in its entirety. On September 9, 2011 Debtor's counsel withdrew the amendment to Schedule D, returning Schedule D to its status quo ante (conceding the debt as owed to GMAC in the amount of $463,792.00). Sidestepping for the moment the propriety of filing an amendment to Schedule D on the day of the claim objection hearingnearly one year into the casethen withdrawing the amendment while submitting a proposed order striking the claim, the court overruled the objection on September 12, 2011 because the original November 11, 2010 Schedule D was in effect as of the court's ruling. That Schedule D conceded that $463,792.00 was owed, and the court's order overruling the objection allowed GMAC's claim in that conceded reduced amount of $463,792.00. The excess of $5,768.83 was disallowed because GMAC did not appear at the September 7th hearing to contest the claim objection or justify an amount in excess of the Debtor's concession. See [ECF No. 145].
Contemporaneously with the order overruling the Debtor's claim objection, the court entered an order scheduling an October 12, 2011 show-cause hearing. See [ECF No. 147]. The show-cause hearing was continued from October 12th to October 26th and addressed whether Debtor's counsel violated Fed. R. Bankr.P. 9011(b) by filing the claim objection despite the Debtor's concession in his schedules.
On September 26, 2011, Debtor's counsel filed a motion to reconsider the court's order overruling the claim objection. See [ECF No. 154]. That motion argued, inter alia, that the court violated the Debtor's constitutional rights by overruling the Debtor's claim objection. The motion can, without hyperbole, be characterized as meticulously drafted idiocy. The record of the October 26th hearing establishes that Debtor's counsel conferred with counsel for GMAC before the hearing, who was apparently able to convince Debtor's counsel that the reconsideration motion was meritless. Debtor's counsel accordingly withdrew the reconsideration motion about an hour and a half before the October 26th hearing. The court was left to address the narrow issue of whether Debtor's counsel violated Fed. R. Bankr.P. 9011(b) by filing the meritless claim objection in objective bad faith. The Debtor's attorney in the Lewis case is the same attorney in the MacFarland case, supra.

II. Discussion

A. Failure to Attach a Writing is Not a Basis for Disallowance Under 11 U.S.C. §§ 501 and 502; Even if the Claim Is Not Considered Prima Facie Valid, the Objection Must Still Present Evidence to Rebut the Evidence in the Claim.
Section 501 of the bankruptcy code only requires a creditor to timely file a proof of claim; otherwise either the debtor or the trustee can file the claim after the bar date. Section 502, subsections (a) and (b) state that a claim is deemed allowed as long as it is timely filed unless a party in interest objects to the claim on the grounds specified under subsections (b)(1)-(9). Subsections (b)(1)-(9) provide the exclusive list of reasons for disallowance of a *880 claim. The failure to accompany a proof of claim with the appropriate writing is not one of the reasons listed in section 502(b) for disallowance.
As discussed below, the growing majority of bankruptcy courts and appellate courts have read 28 U.S.C. § 2075 and 11 U.S.C. § 502(b) as giving no discretion to disallow a claim for any reason other than those stated in § 502. Fed. R. Bankr.P. 3001(c) does not create an independent ground for claim disallowance because failure to comply is an evidentiary defect that only deprives a claim of its prima facie validity. The burden of proof is on the objecting party to provide evidence surpassing the evidence set forth in the claim. In many of the claims objections at issue here, the debtors have disputed the amount or validity of debt which they scheduled in substantially identical or greater amounts. None of the claims objections raises substantive allegations under § 502(b) to disallow the claims, and some of the Rule 3001(c) objections for lack of documentation concern claims with substantial documentation attached. See, e.g., [ECF No. 68], Case No. 11-13345-JKO.
This district has at least three published opinions concerning claim disallowance under 11 U.S.C. § 502 and Fed. R. Bankr.P. 3001(c). See In re Orozco, No. 09-34626-BKC-RAM (Bankr.S.D.Fla. July 30, 2011) (Mark, J.) (not yet appearing on Westlaw or Lexis); In re Moreno, 341 B.R. 813 (Bankr.S.D.Fla.2006) (Mark, J.); In re Felipe, 319 B.R. 730 (Bankr.S.D.Fla.2005) (Mark, J.). In Moreno, Judge Mark joined the majority view in deciding that a creditor's failure to attach a signed application or statements supporting its claim is not a basis for claim disallowance:
First, if a claim is scheduled by a debtor as undisputed and in an amount equal to or greater than the amount in the proof of claim, little, if any, documentation is necessary. . . . Moreover, this Court joins other courts which have criticized the tactic of filing an objection to an undisputed scheduled claim. . . . The Court's bar to raising objections to claims scheduled as undisputed should not be read as an invitation to schedule credit card debts as disputed in hopes of shifting the burden back to the creditor.
Moreno, 341 B.R. at 818 (internal citations omitted). In the event that the scheduled amount is less than the proof of claim amount, an objection based solely on lack of documentation should be overruled without prejudice to the debtor's right to file a renewed objection to that portion of the claim which is in excess of the scheduled amount. Id. Further, in Felipe, Judge Mark held that "claims objections should address that portion of a claim actually in dispute" and "it is not appropriate, for example, to seek an Order striking a $1,361.96 claim in its entirety . . . if the debtor has scheduled the claim as undisputed and liquidated in the amount of $1,320.00." Felipe, 319 B.R. at 735 n. 3. Recently, in Orozco, Judge Mark again published an order to remind debtors' attorneys in this district that alleged lack of supporting documentation is an insufficient basis for claim disallowance. See Orozco, Case No. No. 09-34626-BKC-RAM, ECF No. 109, at 1-2.
The cases addressed by this sanctions order present essentially baseless claims objections which appear to be shotgun attempts to object to everything and "see what sticks." Requiring creditors to attach documentation in response to frivolous claims objections increases abuse and litigation. See In re Shank, 315 B.R. 799, 813 (Bankr.N.D.Ga.2004). If there is no substantive objection to the claim, the creditor should not be required to provide further documentation because it serves no purpose other than to decrease the likelihood *881 that a valid claim against the estate will be disallowed on specious grounds. See id. The instant cases present objections to claims for debts which were scheduled in amounts substantially identical to (or greater than) the claimed amounts. All of the relevant debts were scheduled as neither contingent, nor unliquidated, nor disputed.

B. Debtors' Counsel Violate Ethical Duties by: (1) Objecting to a Claim for Lack of Documentation when the Debt was Scheduled in Substantially the Same or Greater Amount; (2) "Disputing" Liability or Amount with No Substantial Basis; or (3) Seeking to Strike & Disallow a Claim in its Entirety when Any Portion of the Debt is Undisputedly Due & Owing.
As Judge Mark discussed in Moreno and Felipe, a creditor's failure to comply with Fed. R. Bankr.P. 3001(c) does not per se justify claim disallowance, especially when the debtor has scheduled the debt in substantially the same or greater amount and not scheduled the debt (in good faith) as contingent or disputed. See Moreno, 341 B.R. 813; Felipe, 319 B.R. 730; see also In re Armstrong, 320 B.R. 97, 104 (Bankr.N.D.Tex.2005) (Felsenthal, Houser, & Hale, JJ.). By filing a petition and schedules, a debtor makes a sworn statement under penalty of perjury regarding the debtor's understanding of his or her debts, and creditors file claims under that same scrutiny. Armstrong, 320 B.R. at 107. Debtors' attorneys must carefully consider their ethical obligations under Fed. R. Bankr.P. 9011(b) when objecting to a claim. See In re Branch, 2009 WL 2046510, at *4 (Bankr.E.D.Tex.2009). Filing a mass of claim objections alleging "lack of documentation" does not permit debtors' counsel to strike and disallow claims for debts which the debtor has already admitted to owing. Orozco, Case No. 09-34626-BKC-RAM, ECF No. 109, at 2-3 (citing Moreno, 341 B.R. at 816; Felipe, 319 B.R. at 735). Rather, it subjects debtors' counsel to the prospect of Rule 9011 sanctions for isolated occurrences, and substantially more onerous sanctions when there is a persistent pattern.
Fed. R. Bankr.P. 3001(a) only requires that a proof of claim "conform substantially to the appropriate Official Form." Official Bankruptcy Form 10 does not require that all writings be attached to support an unsecured claim as it advises the claimant to provide a summary if documents are voluminous. Nor does Form 10 notify a claimant that failure to attach documentary support will result in disallowance of the claim. "[T]he law is well settled that failure to attach supporting documentation as required by a rule of procedure is not grounds for disallowance of a claim [because] § 502(b) supplies the exclusive basis for claim disallowance." In re Kincaid, 388 B.R. 610, 614 (Bankr. E.D.Pa.2008). A creditor's failure to attach Rule 3001(c) documents robs the creditor of its Rule 3001(f) evidentiary presumption of validity, but that is not the only way for a creditor to establish a prima facie claim against the estate. A proof of claim, when considered together with the relevant admissions in the schedules, establishes a prima facie case of the debtor's liability on the claim and shifts the burden of production to the debtor. See In re Jorczak, 314 B.R. 474 (Bankr. D.Conn.2004). If a debt is undisputed, no other creditor has filed a proof of claim for the debt, and the debtor doesn't present any evidence to dispute the debt or ownership of the debt, the objection to claim should be overruled based upon the preponderance of the evidence. See Kincaid, 388 B.R. at 617-18. To hold otherwise is to invite mischief:

*882 Debtors with no evidence that the claims are invalid may be inclined to launch "fishing expeditions" for documents that the claimants simply cannot produce timely or economically. Creditors who have executed their claims under penalty of fines and imprisonment will be forced to decide whether producing documentation is economically feasible for a $5,000 claim, while debtors who have signed bankruptcy schedules under penalty of perjury are relieved of their obligations to include those claims in a chapter 13 plan based on a technicality.
In re Habiballa, 337 B.R. 911, 916 (Bankr. E.D.Wis.2006). Such mischief has been persuasively addressed in this district when Judge Mark held that, "If a claim is scheduled by a debtor as undisputed and in an amount equal to or greater than the amount in the proof of claim, little, if any, documentation is necessary." Moreno, 341 B.R. at 818. As such, objecting to a claim for such a debt will almost always be a Rule 9011(b) violation, and scheduling debts as "disputed" with no good faith basis would likewise violate Rule 9011(b). "The Court's bar to raising objections to claims scheduled as undisputed should not be read as an invitation to schedule credit card debts as disputed in hopes of shifting the burden back to the creditor." Id. Nor would scheduling the amount of claim as "unknown" avoid the issue, as that would again subject debtors' counsel to Rule 9011(b) sanctions.
Even in the event that the scheduled amount is less than the proof of claim amount, an objection seeking to strike and disallow the claim in its entirety should be overruled without prejudice to the debtor's right to file a renewed objection to that portion of the claim which is in excess of the scheduled amount. See Moreno, 341 B.R. at 819. In this district and the majority of others, "claims objections should address that portion of a claim actually in dispute." Felipe, 319 B.R. at 735 n. 3. It is not appropriate to seek an order striking a $5,000.00 claim in its entirety if the debtor has scheduled the claim as undisputed and liquidated in the amount of $2,500.00. See id. Repeated attempts to strike and disallow claims in their entirety when portions of those debts are undisputedly due and owing is tantamount to bad faith justifying the imposition of sanctions. See, e.g., Ginsberg v. Evergreen Security, Ltd. (In re Evergreen), 570 F.3d 1257, 1275 (11th Cir.2009).

C. Claims Objections Such As These Interfere with the "Just, Speedy, and Inexpensive Determination of Every Case."
The Federal Rules of Bankruptcy Procedure explicitly state that the "rules shall be construed to secure the just, speedy, and inexpensive determination of every case and proceeding." Fed. R. Bankr.P. 1001. The purpose of the rules governing claims is to require creditors to provide sufficient information so that a debtor may identify creditors and match their claims with scheduled debts. See generally Resurgent Capital Servs. v. Burnett (In re Burnett), 306 B.R. 313 (9th Cir.2004). To require creditors to produce voluminous account information for every claim imposes an unnecessary burden on creditors without conferring a commensurate benefit to debtors. See Shank, 315 B.R. at 813. Instead, it increases abuse and litigation. See id. So long as the proof of claim contains sufficient information to match it with a scheduled debt, the debt is undisputed, no other creditor has filed a proof of claim for the debt, and the debtor doesn't present any evidence to dispute the debt or ownership of the debt, the objection to claim is specious. See Kincaid, 388 B.R. at 617-18. Such claims objectionswhether isolated Rule 9011(b) violations or concerted fraudsinterfere with the just, speedy, and inexpensive determination *883 of whether claims should be allowed.

D. Sanctions are Warranted in These Matters to Deter Repeat Conduct and to Deter Similar Conducted by Others Similarly Situated.
The orders to show cause entered in these cases have a singular aim-to address what has become a pervasive problem within this district stemming from wholesale unjustified claim objections, and to stop that practice. Fed. R. Bankr.P. 9011 places an affirmative duty upon attorneys to make a reasonable investigation of the facts and the law before signing and submitting any petition, pleading, motion, or other paper. B-Line, LLC v. Wingerter (In re Wingerter), 594 F.3d 931, 939 (6th Cir.2010); Briggs v. Labarge (In re Phillips), 433 F.3d 1068 (8th Cir.2006). Attorneys are required to "think first and file later." Stewart v. RCA Corp., 790 F.2d 624, 633 (7th Cir.1986); see also Lieb v. Topstone Indus., Inc., 788 F.2d 151, 157 (3d Cir.1986) (telling attorneys to "look before leaping"). The filing of claim objections with little investigation into the facts or law has become commonplace in this district. In an attempt to stop this practice, the court is entering this common sanctions order in all of the matters and will tag the order for publication. In short, attorneys who filed claim objections in violation of Fed. R. Bankr.P. 9011(b) are being sanctioned in accordance with Rule 9011:
A sanction imposed for violation of this rule shall be limited to what is sufficient to deter repetition of such conduct or comparable conduct by others similarly situated.
Fed. R. Bankr.P. 9011(c)(2). While a certain sanction may be sufficient to deter repetition by an offending attorney in these matters, that very same sanction may not be sufficient to deter comparable conduct by others similarly situated. The sanctions imposed by this order must be tailored to deter those who may choose to take a calculated risk when deciding whether to object to a creditor's claim.

III. Conclusion
For the reasons outlined above, the court is required to impose sanctions upon Debtors' counsel in the above-styled cases to deter repeat behavior and to deter similar conduct by others similarly situated. The court accordingly finds and orders that:
(1) in Case No. 11-13345-JKO (In re Norris & Judy Carol MacFarland), David Marshall Brown, Esq. filed claim objections in objective bad faith, in violation of Fed. R. Bankr.P. 9011(b), and in a manner designed to avoid reasonable review of the claims register as required by Local Rule 2083-1(B). Mr. Brown is accordingly suspended from practice in the United States Bankruptcy Court, Southern District of Florida for 31 days commencing December 1, 2011 and running through December 31, 2011. The court will enter separate orders vacating ECF Nos. 127, 128, 129, and 130, as well as separate orders overruling ECF Nos. 65, 68, 71, 74, 76, 78, 80, 86, 89, 92, 95, 98, 101, 104, 110, 113, & 136;
(2) in Case No. 10-49589-JKO (In re Onelia Hurtado), Maite L. Diaz, Esq. filed claim objections in objective bad faith and in violation of Fed. R.

The court will enter separate orders vacating ECF No. 99 and overruling ECF Nos. 64, 67, 70, 73, 76, 82, 85, 88, 91, & 94;

Bankr.P. 9011(b) such that she is suspended from practice in the United States Bankruptcy Court, Southern District of Florida for 31 days. The court finds that Ms. Diaz' pattern of behavior constitutes a concerted fraud upon creditors and this court such that the suspension shall run consecutively with her suspension in the Hurtado case. This suspension shall accordingly commence January 1, 2012 and run through January 31, 2012. The court will enter separate orders overruling ECF Nos. 111, 114, 117, 120, 132, 135, 144, 156, & 159;

The court finds that Mr. Tromberg, while negligent in his supervision of his staff, took prompt remedial measures to address the problem in his office and has otherwise handled this matter in a highly professional manner such that this suspension shall run concurrently with his suspension in the Ahringer case. This suspension shall accordingly commence December 1, 2011 and run through December 31, 2011;
(6) in Case No. 11-10002-JKO (In re Maria T. Alvarez), Rafael Gonzalez, Esq. filed claim objections in objective bad faith and in violation of Fed. R.

This suspension shall accordingly commence January 1, 2012 and run through January 31, 2012.
