    Default Trustee Wants More Payments on a Bankruptcy Plan, Fully Paid Prior to 60 Months

    My question involves bankruptcy in the state of: Ohio

    We currently have a credit balance on our Chapter 13. We fulfilled our "amount owed" with our last payment that posted this week.
    I contacted the Trustees office and she said that they will consider us paid and send us to the "closing office". A few moments later, she wrote back stated the following:

    After review of your case further the case is not meeting the commitment period of 60 months/payments. Currently case is paying out in 55 months. Due to this the Trustee’s office will need to file a motion to increase the percent paid to your unsecured creditors from 15% to 27.39%. The case will last another 5 months.

    Once this all goes through your case will be ready to close out. Sorry for the confusion.

    We only owe $2865.75 and our balance on hand is $3468.01, creating a credit balance of $602.26. Every payment for the next 5 months will just add to this credit balance. Is this legal to hold us to paying the full 60 months? A friend of mine was discharged early with 4 months remaining. Additionally, we were told by our attorney in April of 2012 that we had 27 months left, which would be July of 2014.

    Is there anything we can do? HELP!!!

    Sure.

    Have your attorney address the issue.
