   U.S. Court of Appeals Case No:  11-6037
   U.S. Bankruptcy Court for the Western District of Missouri - Kansas City   
   [PUBLISHED] [Saladino, Author, with Kressel, Chief Judge, and Nail,
   Bankruptcy Judges]
Bankruptcy Appellate Panel. When a confirmed Chapter 13 plan is modified to reduce payments under 11 U.S.C. Sec. 1329(a) due to substantial change in financial circumstances, the modification must correlate to the changes in circumstance; where debtors lost $1,240 in wages and salary, they could not reduce their monthly payment from $1,890 to $100, and the bankruptcy court did not err in setting their new monthly payment at $500.
