Judge Burris | Page 4 | Collier Case Updates
Debtor moved for confirmation of her proposed chapter 13 plan. Creditor, which held the lien on debtor's mobile home, filed an objection to confirmation. The parties contested the value of the mobile home, which debtor testified had a value of $ 9,000. Creditor asserted that the plan did not meet the requirements of 11 U.S.C.S. § 1325(a)(5), so confirmation should be denied.
Confirmation denied due to debtor's undervaluation of mobile home.
