Case that says OK to take additional expense of $200 if
Posted: Thu Oct 28, 2010 4:33 pm
Jeff, there is no case. On May 22, 2010 at the MCLE at Southwestern,
Michael Hauser said it was the OUST policy that if the vehicle was over six
years old and had over 75,000 miles, to get the 483 deduction (for each
vehicle that qualifies up to two).
These are my notes, and certainly not definitive.

Subject: [cdcbaa] Case that says OK to take additional expense of $200 if
car older??
A few CDCBAA events ago when Frank Cadigan spoke from the OUST we discussed
a case that says that if the car that is paid for is over 10 (7??) years old
or over 100K miles, the Central District OUST will not object of you put in
an additional expense of $200 to account for added maintenence or the
prospect of having to get a new car, soon. Cadigan suggested that we
actually list the expense in the means test as allowed by the holding in
that case. Does anyone recall the case name??? I cant find it on Westlaw.
Thanks
