Only 3% make it to discharge if you do not prepare them. Almost all of my 13's go to discharge. Give them the once over. I even give them a copy of rule 3015. If they don't have income, don't put them in 13.

Also, on a side note which Im sure has been discussed before, I assume that Judge Bason is a former creditors attorney or creditor-friendly attorney. Are there any former individual debtors attorneys who are currently bk judges in the Central District? If not, why is that? In my case, Judge Bason requested that the trustee note the fact that my client had made double payments early in her chapter 13 plan and then had months without any payments. Thus, her disposable income may be higher than set forth in the plan. He also seemed willing to listen to a creditors attorneys philosophical argument that no chapter 13 plan which included family contributions should ever be confirmed because, in his experience, they all fail. Im not sure if thats true though Im still puzzled as to the real purpose of chapter 13 if only 3% ever make it to discharge. Anyway, just some thinks that I was pondering while sitting there for over 2 hours.
