Matt,

Motion can be brought by any party with an interest as Brian says. Also, motion can be brought any time during the case even after confirmation. I saw a case where a car creditor who was being paid only thorugh the plan brought a motion to dismiss for delinquent plan payments (the trustee had not yet filed a motion to dismiss). Since plan payments and payments to creditors are an ongoing concern during the case, this would seem to be an acceptable ground for the motion.

However, since confirmation is (supposed to be) res judicata for most other issues, it doesn't seem that a creditor could use a motion to dismiss to bring up issues that were or should have been adjudicated prior to confirmation.

Matt,
Brian is right. 1307(c) motion to dismiss is a regular motion requiring, (I
believe) 24 days notice. My understanding is that it MUST be held on a
Chapter 13 confirmation day, (miscellaneous Ch 13 motions calender), so that
the Chapter 13 Trustee can provide her impute.

Under 1307(c), a motion to dismiss may be brought by a party in interest (ie creditor). There are no time limitations specified in the Local Rules. Of course, most judges will require that the matter be heard on a Chapter 13 day.
