Ruling
Objection to plan confirmation was sustained, and the IRS was permitted to set off the debtor's refund against any tax liability, whether dischargeable or nondischargeable in nature.
Procedural posture
The IRS filed a motion to lift the automatic stay to set off a tax refund. The debtors did not object to the motion to lift the automatic stay. The issue was whether the IRS could allocate a prepetition tax refund to offset the prepetition tax liability of its choice.
