OPINION
JAMES W. MEYERS, Bankruptcy Judge.
I
The Chapter 13 Trustee objected to confirmation of the Debtors’ plan and sought dismissal of the ease on the grounds that the unsecured debt included on the schedules exceeded the limits for eligibility imposed by 11 U.S.C. § 109(e) 1 . After oral argument on December 11, 2009, the Court ruled that these Debtors are eligible to proceed under Chapter 13. The Court submits this Opinion to address a legal issue that has become more prevalent in the wake of the significant decline in real property values in many areas of the country in the last few years.
