Michigan Dept of Treasury v. Hight (In re Hight)

Ruling
Protective proof of claim filed by debtor for income tax debt owed to state was properly allowed.
Procedural posture

Michigan Department of Treasury objected to a protective proof-of-claim for an income tax debt filed on its behalf by debtor, who filed for bankruptcy in January 2009, before the return and payment for the taxes were due. A bankruptcy court overruled the objection, finding that the claim was permitted. The United States District Court for the Western District of Michigan at Grand Rapids affirmed. The Treasury appealed.
