1 Citing case

  1. In re Zieg

    194 B.R. 469 (Bankr. D. Neb. 1996)   Cited 4 times
    Ruling that debts for taxes on chapter 13 debtor's embezzled income were of a kind described in section 523(C) and therefore not entitled to priority under section 507 and also dischargeable under the plan as a general unsecured claim

    (Not giving priority to a debt means that the creditor can still collect part or all of the debt from the estate, but the creditor must do so as a general creditor, sharing pro rate with other general creditors.). In re Edwards, 74 B.R. 661, 665 n. 19 (Bankr.N.D.Ohio 1987) (quoting S.REP. No. 1106, 95th Cong., 2d Sess. 22 (1978) (emphasis added by Edwards); Daniel v. United States (In re Daniel), 170 B.R. 466, 470 (Bankr.S.D.Ga. 1994). In Chapter 7, the Section 523(a)(1)(C) tax debt for a fraudulent return is nondischargeable, and therefore, a tax authority can pursue a debtor after the bankruptcy case.
