Retirement deductions: Hebbring v. U.S. Trustee, No. 04-16539 (9th Cir. September 11, 2006)
The Bankruptcy Code does not, per se, disallow voluntary contributions to a retirement plan as a reasonably necessary expense in calculating a debtor's disposable income, but rather requires courts to examine the totality of the debtor’s circumstances on a case-by-case basis to determine whether retirement contributions are a reasonably necessary expense for that debtor.
