This section contains the nature of the case and procedural background.

P filed on August 2, 1996. Prior to the filing P engaged in pre-bankruptcy planning. P's original Schedule J, filed August 20, 1996, showed that his projected monthly income was $3,587.13, that his projected monthly expenses were $3,284.00, which included alimony of $ 1,100.00, and that his excess income was thus $303.13. P's plan proposed payments of $300.00 per month to the Trustee. His wife died and P filed an amended Schedule I which showed that his after-tax income had decreased because his income tax withholding increased by $323.21 per month when he stopped paying alimony. He also filed an amended Schedule J showing that he no longer had a $1,100.00 monthly alimony expense. P also increased his other monthly expenses by an aggregate of $408.00 per month. Under amended schedules I and J, this excess income is $ 858.72, and he proposes to pay $ 850.00 per month
