1Opinion of the Court

BROWN, Bankruptcy Judge.

Appellant DaimlerChrysler Financial Services North America LLC (“Daimler-Chrysler”) appeals the bankruptcy court’s Order confirming the Chapter 13 Plan filed by the Debtor, Lee Thomas Wilson (“Debtor”). Central to this appeal is the question of whether the “hanging paragraph” at the end of 11 U.S.C. § 1325(a)(9) relieves the Debtor of the obligation to pay post-petition interest to the secured creditor who recently financed the Debtor’s acquisition of a car. For the reasons stated below, we reverse the bankruptcy court’s Order.
