U.S. 4th Circuit Court of Appeals
-----------------------------------------------------------------------
IN RE MOFFETT (01/23/04 - No. 03-1279)
Under Virginia law, Chapter 13 debtor is entitled to redeem her car
pursuant to the automatic stay and turnover provisions of the Bankruptcy
Code. Return of the car, her sole means of transportation to work,
facilitates her financial rehabilitation; the security interest of the
finance company, which repossessed the car just prior to her bankruptcy
petition, is adequately protected in the bankruptcy plan.

U.S. 7th Circuit Court of Appeals
-----------------------------------------------------------------------
MUNGO v. TAYLOR (01/20/04 - No. 03-1897, 03-1913, 03-2018)
District court did not err in reversing the bankruptcy court decision
deeming plaintiff to be a prevailing party on the legal malpractice
claim brought against her former divorce attorney, while affirming the
bankruptcy court's judgment on all other grounds.

MUNGO v. TAYLOR (01/20/04 - No. 03-1897, 03-1913, 03-2018)
-----------------------------------------------------------------------
U.S. 9th Circuit Court of Appeals
-----------------------------------------------------------------------
IN RE BUNYAN (01/20/04 - No. 02-56786)
Pursuant to 11 U.S.C. section 505(a)(2)(A), the bankruptcy court lacked
jurisdiction to consider the validity of income tax assessments filed by
the IRS in Chapter 13 proceedings. A 1993 circuit court order granting
the Commissioner's motion to dismiss necessarily adjudicated the issue
of when the tax court decisions became final.
