How courts have described this case

Verbatim parenthetical descriptions written by other courts when citing this decision. Ranked by citation-network relevance.

  • concluding that bankruptcy court’s order requiring satisfaction of mortgage after payment of creditor’s claim in full was a permissible clarification rather than a modification of the debtor’s plan
  • allowing clarification that “did not alter any provision of the Plan. Instead, the Court clarified the Plan on a matter on which it was silent.”
  • affirming the bankruptcy court’s post-confirmation decision to extend a payment deadline contained in the plan as an exercise of the Court’s authority under §§ 1142(b) and 105
  • “Though a bankruptcy court exercises its equitable powers at its own discretion, it cannot override specific provisions of the bankruptcy code. Nor can a court rewrite a confirmed plan on the grounds of perceived equities.”
  • change to plan was a permissible clarification, because plan was silent
