In
re Muessel
(DBN Subscription Required) |
1st
Cir. BAP |
The
bankruptcy court exceeded its authority
when it granted a Chapter 13 debtor's
motion to refinance property but ordered
her to amend her Chapter 13 plan to
provide a 100% dividend. Nothing in
the Bankruptcy Code authorizes the
bankruptcy court to either draft or
dictate the provisions of a Chapter 13
plan. |
