submitted 7 years ago by Pub. L. 116-54 to r/title-11-BANKRUPTCY · 152 words · no verdicts yet
This section requires a court to discharge specified debts after a debtor completes the required plan payments under a confirmed plan, subject to stated exceptions.
If the debtor’s plan is confirmed under section 1191(b), the court must grant a discharge as soon as practicable after the debtor* completes all payments due during the first 3 years of the plan, or a longer period fixed by the court up to 5 years. This does not apply if the court approves the debtor’s written waiver of discharge, signed after the order for relief under this chapter. The discharge covers the debts described in section 1141(d)(1)(A), and all other debts allowed under section 503 and provided for in the plan, except: (1) a debt* whose last payment is due after the first 3 years, or after the longer court-fixed period up to 5 years; or (2) a debt of the kind specified in section 523(a).
If the plan of the debtor* is confirmed under section 1191(b) of this title, as soon as practicable after completion by the debtor of all payments due within the first 3 years of the plan, or such longer period not to exceed 5 years as the court may fix, unless the court approves a written waiver of discharge executed by the debtor after the order for relief under this chapter, the court shall grant the debtor a discharge of all debts provided in section 1141(d)(1)(A) of this title, and all other debts allowed under section 503 of this title and provided for in the plan, except any debt*—
on which the last payment is due after the first 3 years of the plan, or such other time not to exceed 5 years fixed by the court; or
of the kind specified in section 523(a) of this title.
