de la Salle v. U.S. Bank, N.A. (In re de la Salle), 461 B.R. 593 (B.A.P. 9th Cir. 2011) (Jury, Kirscher, Dunn)

Form plan in Eastern District of California was consistent with statutes and rules concerning treatment of claims: proof of claim would determine amount and classification of claim; dividends would be paid based on claim, unless lien avoidance, valuation or claim objection affected amount or classification. Debtors objected to mortgage claim, and adversary proceeding against mortgage creditor was pending but not resolved. Plan that did not provide for secured proof of claim could not be confirmed.
