Most-quoted passages

The sentences later courts lift from this opinion, ranked by how many decisions quote each — the parts of the opinion doing the work. These counts are smaller than the citation total above because most of the 33 citing decisions cite the case generally; a passage count includes only decisions quoting that exact language verbatim.

  1. “... make a final report and file a final account of the administration of the estate with the court.”

  2. “After confirmation of a Chapter 13 Plan, all "property of the estate" is vested in the debtor, unless otherwise provided for in the Plan. "Any property which has not been designated in the plan or order of confirmation as necessary for the execution of the plan revests in the debtor ..." and is thus no longer "property of the estate". In re Adams, 12 B.R. 540 (Bankr. Utah 1981). Any property that has been designated in the plan or order of confirmation as necessary for the execution of the plan, e.g. post-petition wages up to the amount of the plan payments each month, remain "property of the estate."”

  3. “There was no evidence that the IRS was specifically seeking to levy on that portion of the property and earnings which remained “property of the estate” post-confirmation. Had that evidence been forthcoming, the IRS would have been in violation of § 362. If the IRS was seeking to levy only upon property of the Debtor which did not constitute “property of the estate”, such action would not have been in violation of § 362.”
