58 B.R. 546 | Bankr. E.D. Pa. | 1986
OPINION
As the vortex of the dispute in this case, the issue is whether payments to a creditor under a chapter 13 plan which is funded by postpetition wages, may be recovered by the debtor after conversion of the case to chapter 7. For the reasons stated herein, we conclude that the payments may be recovered.
The facts of this case are as follows:
The debtor commenced the instant action to recover the $1,973.25 paid to Bankers under the chapter 13 plan. The basis of the requested relief is that, while postpetition wages are property of a chapter 13 estate, they cease having that character on conversion of a chapter 13 case to chapter
. This opinion constitutes the findings of fact and conclusions of law required by Bankruptcy Rule 7052.
