Nuvell Credit Co. LLC v. Dean (In re Dean)

Ruling
"910 claims" are fully secured claims on which creditor is entitled to payment of interest.
Procedural posture

Appellant creditor directly appealed the Bankruptcy Court for the Middle District of Georgia's order confirming appellee debtors' chapter 13 plan. Central to the appeal was the question of whether a claim that fell within the "hanging paragraph," 11 U.S.C.S. § 1325(a)(*), at the end of 11 U.S.C.S. § 1325(a)(9) was an allowed secured claim entitling the creditor to payment in full, plus post-petition interest.
