Objection to Child Support Claim #11-1

Greg and Sandra Howard, debtors in a Chapter 13 bankruptcy case, objected to a $99,850.86 priority child support claim filed by the Massachusetts Department of Revenue on behalf of Valerie Mitchell. However, according to a state court order, the actual child support arrearage owed to Mitchell is only $7,551.56. Furthermore, the Alabama Department of Human Resources filed a claim for $7,631.14 for the same domestic support obligation, which will be paid in full under the debtors' bankruptcy plan. Therefore, the debtors assert that the Massachusetts claim should be disallowed as the amount is no longer owed.
