Request for Modification of Plan

A Request for Modification of Plan is a legal document filed by a debtor in a Chapter 13 bankruptcy case to propose changes to their confirmed bankruptcy plan. The modification may be necessary due to changes in the debtor’s financial circumstances, such as a loss of income or an increase in expenses. The modification may propose changes to the amount or timing of plan payments, the treatment of certain creditors, or other aspects of the plan. The Request for Modification of Plan must be served on all creditors and the bankruptcy trustee, who have the right to object to the proposed changes. If the court approves the modification, the debtor must continue to make payments according to the modified plan until the case is completed or dismissed.
