This legal case is about how to calculate a debtor's household size for Chapter 13 bankruptcy relief. The debtor's proposed plan was denied because she overestimated her household size, which resulted in an inaccurate calculation of monthly expenses. The court needed to decide which method to use to define "household size" for the bankruptcy proceedings, as this would ultimately impact the debtor's disposable income calculation.
