MEMORANDUM OF DECISION
JAMES B. HAINES, Jr., Bankruptcy Judge.
The Chapter 7 trustee has objected to the claim of Gary Gosselin (“Gosselin”), a former employee of Maine Built Homes, the debtor’s pre-petition sole proprietorship. Gosselin filed a proof of claim asserting priority under 11 U.S.C. § 507(a)(3) for $28,325.34 in workers’ compensation benefits due to him on account of a work-related injury he sustained on November 20, 1986. The trustee does not contest the debtor’s obligation to Mr. Gosselin. Only the claimed priority is at issue.
