MEMORANDUM OF DECISION

JIM D. PAPPAS, Bankruptcy Judge.

Introduction

The issue presented in this chapter 13 1 case is whether § 1325(b)(4)(A)(ii) of the Bankruptcy Code, a provision added by the Bankruptcy Abuse Prevention and Consumer Protection Act of 2005 “BAPC-PA”, Pub.L. 109-8,119 Stat. 23 (2005), requires that a debtor include the income earned by his deceased spouse during the six months prior to the filing of the debt- or’s bankruptcy petition in determining the “applicable commitment period” for the debtor’s plan. An analysis of this issue yields an odd result, indeed. 2
