OPINION and ORDER
CECELIA H. GOETZ, Bankruptcy Judge:
The issue before the Court is whether the debtor herein has invoked the benefits of Chapter 13 of the Bankruptcy Code in “good faith.” 1 11 U.S.C. § 1325(a)(3). Pursuant to Chapter 13, 2 a debtor may secure relief from his debts by payments over a period of time to his creditors. Before a Chapter 13 plan can be put into execution, it must be confirmed by the Court. One of the requirements for confirmation is that the Court find that “the plan has been proposed in good faith.” 11 U.S.C. § 1325(aX3).
