Dennis: KL is considering closing cases notwithstanding long term payouts if
that is the only remaining obligation under the C11 plan. USTE did NOT
oppose the debtor's motion on the basis that they want the fees. Instead,
they argued (as did I) that all other obligations need to be paid. Judge
agreed and denied the motion. I think Judges are sympathetic to avoiding
quarterly fees for 30 years.

Subject: Re: [cdcbaa] Newbie Question: Cramdown of Real Property in Chapter
13 and 11
Ch 11 is tricky. The longer the plan, the longer the debtor is paying
quarterly fees, and staying in bk. Maybe ammortize the loan over 30 years
and make it due in 5.
Both 13 and 11 have the same residence restrictions on modifications.

I continually have potential clients who want to cramdown/stripdown their
first mortgage on either their residential property or rental property. It
is my understanding that you cannot do that in either case unless you pay
off the entire secured portion (market value) during the life of the plan
which in a 13 is either 3 or 5 years? Is that correct? If so, how does
anyone ever cramdown or modify real property mortgages?
Also, because there is no 3 or 5 year limitation in a Chapter 11, can you
(practically speaking) have a 20 or 25 year plan that will actually get
confirmed which would allow for the secured portion to be paid in the plan
(with reasonable plan payments)? Thanks.
