Dear Colleagues,

 

Debtor files Chapter 7. California Tax Board files POC $9315.53 priority
claim and $42 general unsecured claim. Trustee pays the priority claim in
full. California tax board now attempting to collect from Debtor post
discharge accumulated interest and penalty from date of filing in excess of
$800.

 

I have not researched but am of the uneducated opinion that post- petition
interest and penalty on the priority tax would be a general unsecured claim
that is discharged. Is my guess correct?  I would appreciate your input.
