In the Matter of John Joseph METZ, Debtor. DOWNEY SAVINGS AND LOAN ASSOCIATION, Appellant, v. John Joseph METZ, Appellee

Court of Appeals for the Ninth Circuit

Decided July 6, 1987No. 86-6474PublishedCited by 171 opinions

1Opinion of the Court

SKOPIL, Circuit Judge:

This appeal is from a decision of the Bankruptcy Appellate Panel affirming the Bankruptcy Court’s confirmation of a debt- or’s chapter 13 plan. Appellant Downey Savings and Loan Association (“Downey”) argues that appellee debtor Metz’s successive filing of chapter 7 and chapter 13 petitions constitutes bad faith. Alternatively, Downey argues that if the chapter 13 plan was not filed in bad faith, the plan is nevertheless deficient because it under-compensates Downey for its secured interest. We reject Downey’s contentions and affirm.
