In re Watson

Ruling
Alleged domestic support order split into unsecured priority and general unsecured claims due to dubious documentation.
Procedural posture
After claimant filed a claim in debtors' chapter 7 case ostensibly reflecting a unsecured priority claim (UPC) per 11 U.S.C.S. § 507(a)(1) that was a "domestic support obligation" within the meaning of 11 U.S.C.S. § 101(14A) in favor of claimant, the trustee objected. The trustee proposed, however, to allow the challenged amount as a general unsecured claim and did not object to the designation of other amounts as a priority claim.
