Latest Bankruptcy News
Local Standards Apply but Trustee Need Not Be a Sumpsimus
Despite higher actual vehicle operating costs, when calculating disposable income on the means test, above-median debtors must use the exact numerical values for expenses that are specified in the IRS’s National and Local Standards.
