6 Month Plan?
Peter: Thank you for directing me to the materials and thank you for the article. Not only is it helpful but well reasoned. Clearly the time is now to extend lien stripping to Chapter 7 cases. Although I like the idea of the Chapter 13 route, I do not want to keep my debtor in a Chapter 13 for a full three years. Thanks again. Simon.

Subject: Re: [cdcbaa] 6 Month Plan?
You seem to be talking about the In re Kagenveama case. In practice, Chapter 13 trustees take the position that the holding in that case applies only to above-median debtors and that below-median debtors are still bound to the minimum 3 year plan. You usually have to pay at least $100 per month -- I've tried to pay less and to have a plan for less than a year to no avail.

At NACBA they said that 2 years might work in caseswith no disposable income. Abuse of the bankruptcy system isthe main issue. Jim King wrote an article about the 9th Circuit's decision on this in an old cdcbaa issue.

I see you're venturing into non-business bankruptcy. We've met before in
business bankruptcy cases, but the last time was quite a while ago while I
was working at Winthrop Couchot. In any event, the minimum commitment
period for a person under the median is three years unless the person pays
100% to unsecureds. Another warning is that the Chapter 13 trustee will
require her to turn over tax refunds during that period, if she has any.
