Ruling
Confirmed plan had res judicata effect on family court support orders despite violating §1327(a).
Procedural posture

Appellant ex-husband appealed an order of the United States Bankruptcy Appellate Panel for the Eighth Circuit that reversed a judgment of the bankruptcy court that had held that a family court's income-withholding order in favor of appellee ex-wife had contravened a confirmed Chapter 13 bankruptcy plan in that it exceeded the $300-per-month repayment schedule that the plan provided for.
