Ruling
Bankruptcy court properly held that debtor could modify rights of mortgagee in two-family home.
Procedural posture

Creditor was the holder of a claim secured by a second mortgage against appellee debtor's two-family home. Debtor's Plan, which modified the creditor's rights as a mortgagee, was confirmed by the U.S. Bankruptcy Court for the District of Rhode Island. The creditor appealed, asserting that the bankruptcy court erred in concluding that 11 U.S.C.S. § 1322(b)(2) permitted a debtor to modify the rights of a mortgagee in a two-family home.
