Can I make a motion to the courts to revise my trustee payments to make it more affordable?
I recently lost my job, my wife and I are half way through our chapter 13, but we will struggle to make the trustee payments soon when we take on her student loans that mature in 4 months. Can the courts help us by lowering the trustee payments?
