The Consumer Provisions of the CARES ACT and Local Court Responses to the Pandemic
This seminar will discuss Section 1113 of the CARES Act, which, in part, excludes from the definition of “current monthly income” COVID-19 payments made by the federal government related to the COVID-19 federal emergency, and allows debtors who have been affected by the pandemic to modify their chapter 13 plans to allow payments for up to seven years after the first payment was due if their plans were confirmed prior to the enactment of the law.">This seminar will discuss Section 1113 of the CARES Act, which, in part, excludes from the definition of “current monthly income” COVID-19 payments made by the federal government related to the COVID-19 federal emergency, and allows debtors who have been affected by the pandemic to modify their chapter 13 plans to allow payments for up to seven years after the first payment was due if their plans were confirmed prior to the enactment of the law.
