In re Lang

Ruling
Debtor in converted chapter 7 case not required to turn over difference between current value of vehicle and value at date of original filing under chapter 13.
Procedural posture

A Chapter 7 trustee moved to compel the debtor to turn over $7,250, which was the non-exempt value of an automobile as of the date of the filing of the case in Chapter 13. The central issue was whether the debtor had to account for that value even after the conversion of her case to Chapter 7.
