MEMORANDUM OPINION
JEFF BOHM, Bankruptcy Judge.
I. INTRODUCTION
This Memorandum Opinion is written to address a very important issue to Chapter 13 debtors in general and the several Chapter 13 Debtors referenced above: Should they be allowed to pay their home mortgage lenders directly instead of remitting the necessary funds to the trustee for distribution to the mortgagees? Debtors Perez, Lanier, Frias, Bryan, Hatcher, and Stewart (the Debtors) assert that they should be allowed to do so. 1 This Court disagrees. This Opinion sets forth how the Court has arrived at its decision.
