In re Petro

Ruling
Above-median debtors' "projected disposable income" calculated in accordance with BAPCPA could not be evidence of bad faith.
Procedural posture

The Standing Chapter 13 Trustee for the Middle District of Tennessee filed objections to the debtors' proposed chapter 13 plan, asserting that the proposed plan failed to use the proper methodology to calculate the debtors' projected disposable income pursuant to 11 U.S.C. § 1325(b)(2), therefore had not been proposed in good faith. The trustee also objected to a telecommunications expense deduction of $350.
