Senators on Tithing in Bankruptcy

posted by Melissa Jacoby

Bob recently posted about a court decision refusing a deduction for tithing in a chapter 13 case.   That case has prompted Senators Grassley, Hatch, and Sessions to write a letter to the Attorney General asking the DOJ to direct chapter 13 trustees not to object to tithing that meets the requirements of the Religious Liberty and Charitable Donation Protection Act of 2005.

Bankr-L

  • As a public service, the University of Illinois College of Law operates Bankr-L, an e-mail list on which bankruptcy professionals can exchange information. Bankr-L is administered by one of the Credit Slips bloggers, Professor Robert M. Lawless of the University of Illinois. Although Bankr-L is a free service, membership is limited only to persons with a professional connection to the bankruptcy field (e.g., lawyer, accountant, academic, judge). To request a subscription on Bankr-L, click on this link and then click on the link for "Join or leave the list." After completing the information there, please also send an e-mail to Professor Lawless (rlawless-at-law-dot-uiuc-dot-edu) with a short description of your professional connection to bankruptcy. A link to a URL with a professional bio or other identifying information would be great.
