Ruling
Debtor was entitled to full housing expense based on IRS standards regardless of actual expense and IRS manual was not applicable.
Procedural posture
A bankruptcy debtor proposed a chapter 13 plan which provided for payment of the debtor's projected disposable income to unsecured creditors, which was calculated under 11 U.S.C. § 1325(b)(3) using a housing expense based on uniform IRS standards rather than the debtor's lower actual expense. The bankruptcy trustee objected to confirmation of the debtor's plan.
