Ranta v. Gorman

Debtor appealed the district court's denial of the confirmation of his proposed Chapter 13 plan on the grounds that it did not accurately reflect his disposable income and that it was unfeasible if debtor's Social Security income was excluded from his "projected disposable income." The court vacated and remanded, holding that the plain language of the Bankruptcy Code excluded Social Security income from the calculation of "projected disposable income," but that such income nevertheless must be considered in the evaluation of a plan's feasibility.
