Such delayed filings shall be rejected unless accompanied by a declaration or affidavit attesting to the filing person’s failed attempts to file electronically at least two times after 12:00 p.m. separated by at least one hour on each day of delay due to technical failure. The Clerk shall provide notice of all such technical failures on the EDNY public web site and by means of an EDNY telephone number which persons may call to learn the status of the filing system.
