David A. Reed
Motion to Reinstate Case based upon recent direct payment of $2,415.00
**Amended mtn filed 12/17/14**
DQ = $13,555.09 @ $2415/mo DP
Rec'd $2410 in Dec - NSF funds (12/23 check NSF). Last good pmt was
Aug 2014.
The above proceeding was dismissed, without prejudice, on November 24, 2014,
for a default in plan payments after her employer (unilaterally, and in a gesture of
unspeakable bureaucratic ineptitude) cancelled the wage order once it reached the
threshold of $99,999.99 in gross withholdings. D has since mailed a full direct
payment, and presumably her employer will honor a fresh wage deduction order.
TTE's objection: The Trustee does not specifically object to the reinstatement of
the case. However, due to the missed payments the plan payments must increase
to $2977.00 per month in order for the plan to complete in 63 months. If debtor
consents to the increase in plan payments, the Trustee will withdraw his objection
to the Motion to Reinstate the case. 12/23 check was NSF.
Cont from Jan for good funds and a feasible plan. It appears that the D cannot
afford the pmts of $2977/mo.
2/15/15 Email from DA: Client's case was dismissed, but not yet closed.
She owes DQ of
$13,555.08. She brought cashier's check for $5,000.00, which we mailed to TTE last week. We filed
Motion to Reinstate. Client has only eight months left in her plan duration. It may be possible for her to
pay another large amount. How much of a lump sum payment should she pay in order to keep her
monthly payment at $2,415.00 for the next eight months?
Berger PM Docket
February 24, 2015, 1:30 p.m.

plan payment) to keep her plan payments at $2415.00 per month for the next 9 months.

Motion for Dismissal for Other - Current w/ TTE @ $1693/mo
**cont to 3/17/15 for tracking / pay off**
The Ds' Plan will exceed the allotted five year limitation from confirmation. The
TTE calculates that the payment will need to increase to $3995.00 per month in
order for the Plan to complete within the five year limitation.
The plan should become a 100% plan due to excess disposable income as
evidenced in debtors' 2012 and 2013 income tax returns.
FYI - Ds income increased by $76k/year over the last two years.
Asked DA for amended budget/plan on 5/13/14. Advised that if not done, would
request bank statements.
Requested bank statements from Jan 2013 thru Sept 2014 on 10/3/14.
10/29/14 Payoff letter to DA: $106,050 good thru 11/15/14 as a 100% plan.
10/30/14 Email from DA: I got a response voicemail on the request for bank
statements. The Smiths are in Florida with grandkids so it will be awhile before I
can provide same. She suggested, and I was wondering, if she borrows from 401k
to pay it off would that be acceptable. I am looking at the proof of claims to see if
I can object to same -- Jeff did nothing -- and if she can lump sum after January we
may be able to resolve this whole issue. She did send me her paystubs -- which
show a decrease in pay -- do you want me to scan and send those for now?
11/3/14 Email to DA after discussing w/ Andrea: We do not have an objection to
the debtor borrowing from her 401k to pay off the plan. You will just need to file
Berger PM Docket
February 24, 2015, 1:30 p.m.
the appropriate motion. Please send over her current paystubs and send the bank
statements over whenever you receive them. Thank you/klf
1/7/15 Email from DA: she wants to payoff but I ran the claims Koons should have objected no
docs on major ones -- can I have one more continuance as I will file the objections to claims to reduce
the amount of payoff?
Obj to claim #4 filed 2/515. Obj due 3/3/15.
2/17/15 Email from DA: The wife wants this to go away and is willing to cash in the 401k to pay it
off. I objected to Portfolio but looking at the claims AMEX has me scared and I can't object because
Koons listed that dollar amount on his schedules.
Can you tell me the payoff on this case? and if they can pay it off -- she made approx. $127,000 last year
-- less than projected -- can they send a certified check.
2/18/15 Email to DA: If the objection to PRA's claim is sustained, the payoff would be $85,777.49.

Russell B. Cloon
Motion to Modify Plan Payment (Increasing Plan Payments)
Mtn to modify the plan to pay o/g mtg pmts and mortgage arrears thru the plan.
Residence is secured by mortgage with Federal National Mortgage Ass'n. When
case was filed, Ds were current on mtg pmts. After filing bckcy, BOA transferred
note to National Mortgage Ass'n c/o Seterus. Ds have been working with Seterus to
secure a modification of the mortgage loan but have been unsuccessful. During
modification process Ds were advised not to make their mortgage pmts, that once
the modification was completed, Ds would only need to make their o/g mortgage
pmts. The modification was denied and Ds have accumulated arrears that they do
not have the ability to bring current.
Ds seek to modify the plan to add the mortgage arrears to be paid thru the plan and
to comply with the S.O. D should pay mortgage arrears due and owing thru
1/1/15. Arrearage shall be determined by an amended poc to be filed by the lender.
On-going mtg pmts to be paid thru the plan commencing with the 2/1/15 pmt.
TTE's objection: Ds have filed a motion to modify the plan to pay post-petition
mortgage arrears and ongoing monthly mortgage payments through their Chapter
13 plan. The Trustee is unable to calculate the feasibility of the plan based upon
the motion to modify, as the motion does not provide an estimated amount of
the post petition arrears, the amount of the monthly mortgage payments and
does not propose a specific increase in the plan payments. Additionally, in
order to comply with the Standing Order, debtors must propose to pay the plan
payment via income withholding order or receive court permission to deviate from
the Standing Order.
Note: EP in place.
1/9/15 Email from DA: This is on docket Tuesday on the plan modification to 'convert' it to
a pay-through-plan due to post-petition mortgage arrears. Your office filed an objection based
Berger PM Docket
February 24, 2015, 1:30 p.m.
on lack of information. I met with the debtors yesterday, and attached please find Exhibits A
and B, which should provide the mortgage portion of the needed info. We were going to also
do a new I and J, but the joint debtor advised me she lost one of her two jobs, and that her
mother is moving in for numerous reasons, but the relevant one is that she will be able to help
with contributing to household expenses. Bottom line is that I will be asking the Court to
continue it for a month for me to finish getting paystubs and the rest of the income/expense
info. It is my hope that, once that is submitted, it will cure the issue in the objection. Please
contact me if you have any questions.

Notice of Mortgage Payment Change (Claim # 10) Filed by Creditor Deutsche
Bank National Trust Company, as Trustee for New Century Home Equity
Loan Trust
9/18/14 Objection:
1. On August 27, 2014, Mortgagee Ocwen Loan Servicing, LLC, filed a Notice of
Mortgage Payment Change (hereinafter, “Notice”) for Claim 10.
2. The Notice indicates that the new total payment is to be $1,389.19, effective
October 1, 2014. Further, the Notice indicates that there is no change in the
debtors’ escrow account payment or the debtors’ principal and interest payment
due to an adjustment of the interest rate.
3. The Notice states that the current mortgage payment is $1,389.19, and that the
new mortgage payment will remain the same.
4. Ds’ current mortgage payment is $1,172.94, pursuant to the Amended Proof of
Claim filed by Ocwen Loan Servicing, LLC, on January 3, 2014.
5. Debtors wish to note that Ocwen Loan Servicing failed to file a Proof of Claim
in this case for almost two years, despite the Court issuing an order compelling
them to do so.
6. The Notice gives no explanation for the change in the mortgage payment
amount. The letter attached to the Notice, and the Notice of Mortgage Payment
Change Questionnaire similarly gives no explanation for the mortgage payment
change, and shows no change in the interest rate or escrow amounts.
7. The undersigned contacted counsel for Ocwen Loan Servicing, LLC on
September 10, 2014 and again on September 18, 2014 to ask for documentation
supporting the mortgage payment change, or to withdraw the Notice, and counsel

Notice.

that the Court disallow the Notice of Mortgage Payment Change.

8/6/14 Resp: This Response is not timely due to Debtors not responding to
Debtors’ attorney’s telephone and written requests.
Debtors have recently been in the hospital and were unable to return Debtors’
attorney’s requests. Further, Debtors have recently not made their Chapter 13 Plan
payment due to being confused by a letter from their mortgage company listing
trial payment amounts different from the Chapter 13 Plan.
Concurrently with this filing, Debtors will be filing a motion to amend the Chapter
13 Plan to increase the plan payment to the Chapter 13 Trustee’s suggested
$1023.00 per month starting with the August payment. MTA also filed.
Motion for Abate Chapter 13 Plan Payments - abates $2700 (thru Aug).
TTE's Objection: The motion requests abatement of delinquent payments in the
amount of $2700.00. The current delinquency is $3723.00, which includes the
August plan payment. Also, the motion does not indicate when the plan payments
are to resume. Since the plan payments did not resume in August, the plan
payments must now increase to $1070.00 per month for the plan to be feasible.

postpetition fees requested by the creditor on the first mortgage (Claim 6) was

The Debtor has objected to the underlying claim. Regardless of the outcome of that

QD over life of plan. Rec'd $850 in Feb.
Motion for Post-Confirmation Amendment of Plan (Doc #37) - lowers plan
pmt to $850/mo
TTE's Objection: The case is not feasible to lower the payments to $850/mth. In
order to pay the secured mortgage claims in full, the plan payments must increase
to $1,690/mth in order to pay out in 60 months. The plan payments have also been
sporadic, which is another reason it is unfeasible at the $850/mth amount as
proposed.
2/13/15 Email from TTE offc to DA offc: This case is up on the 2/24/15 docket again on our
objection to the mtn to modify the plan to lower plan payments. Counsel has now filed a mtn to modify
again, to just pay the pre-petition mortgage arrearages and the on-going payments (instead of the full
claim).
I was hoping you might go ahead and agree to continue this one to the March..or maybe the April
docket. I am trying to get an amended claim from Citi so I can see how much the arrearages are and
THEN I can accurately determine feasibility. If the $850/mth works, then I will be able to w/draw my obj
to the modified plan at that point.

Motion for Substitution of Collateral, Application for Compensation
Debtor previously filed a Chapter 13 bankruptcy and Plan listing Wells Fargo
Dealer Services as a secured creditor owed $15,951 on a 2005 Dodge 2500 Crew
Cab, VIN 3D7KS28C650809492, with a value of $19,992. There is a remaining
balance of $15,447.40 on the secured claim.
Subsequent to said filing, Debtor’s vehicle was stolen and the insurance company
has deemed it a total loss. The General Insurance Company has indicated it will
pay $17,329.46 for the vehicle.
Debtor is in need of obtaining a replacement vehicle, but does not have the
resources to do so unless he is permitted to use the proceeds from the insurance
coverage to purchase another vehicle.
Wells Fargo Dealer Services is a properly-perfected lien holder on the vehicle, and
is being paid the value of their secured claim through the plan.
Wells Fargo Dealer Services would be adequately secured if Debtors were allowed
to use the proceeds to buy a replacement vehicle of like value, and grant the
creditor a lien against it.
Debtor seeks approval to purchase a 2006 Ford F250, VIN
1FTSW21P96EA13937, 6.0L V8, diesel, with 108,909 miles for $17,500.
No objection.
