Plan payments include post-petition mortgage payments
This Plan may affect creditor rights. If you object to the treatment of your claim as proposed in this Plan, you must file a written
objection by the deadline set forth in a Notice of Date to File Objections to Plan served on parties in interest. If this is a joint case,
then “Debtor” means both Debtors. This plan does not allow claims or affect the timeliness of any claim. To receive payment on your
claim, you must file a proof of claim with the Bankruptcy Court, even if this Plan provides for your debt. The applicable deadlines to file
a proof of claim were specified in the Notice of Commencement of Case. Except as provided in § 1323(c), a creditor who disagrees with
the proposed treatment of its debt in this Plan must timely file an objection to the Plan.
If this is an Amended or Modified Plan, the reasons for filing this Amended or Modified Plan are: [state reasons].
(A) Plan Payments and Property to be Submitted to the Plan.
(1) Plan payments start on ______________, 200___. The Debtor shall pay the Trustee as follows:
$_______ each month for month _____ through month ______.
$_______ each month for month _____ through month ______.
$_______ each month for month _____ through month ______.
The proposed plan duration is ____ months. The applicable commitment period is ____ months. Section 1325(b)(4).
(2) In addition to the plan payments, Debtor will submit the following property to the Trustee: [Describe or state none]
(B) Trustee’s Percentage Fee. Pursuant to 28 U.S.C. § 586(e), the Trustee may collect the percentage fee from all payments and property
received, not to exceed 10%.
(C) Treatment of Administrative Expenses, Post-Petition Mortgage Payments and Claims. Except adequate protection payments
under (C)(1), post-petition mortgage payments under (C)(4), or as otherwise ordered by the Court, the Trustee will make disbursements
to creditors after the Court confirms this Plan. Unless otherwise provided in Section (J), disbursements by the Trustee shall be pro
rata by class (except adequate protection payments) and made in the following order:
(1) Adequate protection payments. Section 1326(a)(1)(C) requires adequate protection payments to be made to creditors secured
by personal property. Pursuant to Local Bankruptcy Rule 2084-6, the Trustee is authorized to make preconfirmation adequate
protection payments to the certain secured creditors without a Court order, provided the claim is properly listed on Schedule D,
the creditor files a secured proof of claim that includes documentation evidencing a perfected security agreement, and the debtor
or creditor sends a letter to the Trustee requesting payment of preconfirmation adequate protection payments. The Trustee will
apply adequate protection payments to the creditor’s secured claim. After confirmation, unless the Court orders otherwise,
adequate protection payments will continue in the same amount until claims to be paid before these claimants are paid in full,
unless the confirmed plan or a court order specifies a different amount. If a secured creditor disagrees with the amount of the
proposed adequate protection payments or the plan fails to provide for such payments, the creditor may file an objection
to confirmation of this plan, file a motion pursuant to §§ 362, 363, or do both.
