Read it thanks. So using In re Kimmel, can I take the position that the second mortgage on the family home and on which the husband is the sole obgligor (on which the debtor wife is on title) is part of the chp 13 and strip it even though the husband is not a debtor?

I took over a case which was originally filed as Chp 7 and converted it to a Chp 13. The case is only for the wife. The husband has credit card debt for a few thousand on which he is only obligor. The debt was incurred during marriage. I am deducting on the means test and on schedule J, the husband's payments on his credit cards. The trustee at the 341A hearing took the position that this debt is community property debt and as such, must be included in the Chp 13 plan and not paid directly. While I agree that it is community property debt and would be relevant in a divorce allocation, I do not think this is the issue. What am I missing? Why does the plan have to provide for payment which would effectively mean that the husband would be paying 15% interest to the credit card companies and 11% interest to the trustee on the same debt?

Watch out for two exceptions to 524(a)(3) injunction against creditor collection from non-debtor spouse after discharge by debtor-spouse of community debt: (1) if non-debtor received discharge within 6 years and (2) if non-debtor had filed on same date as debtor-spouse and would have been denied a discharge under 727.

Ali Nader has an interesting scenario.

A community property debt was discharged for the wife (who only filed) in a Chapter 7. Now 2 years later, the creditors attorney wants to garnish the husband's wages.

My understanding for community property debt is that if the debt gets discharged, the creditor can only go after the other debtor (spouse) for separate property and cannot garnish the wages.

Any thoughts?

You are correct. 11 USC 524(a)(3). To the extent that husband's wages are community property (i.e. if there is no pre or post nuptial agreements transmuting the character), then I think creditor's attorney is in a lot of trouble here and faces an OSC re contempt for violating the post discharge injunction.
