§1186 — Title 11 Bankruptcy | U.S. Code

Summary

If a plan is confirmed under section 1191(b), the bankruptcy estate also covers two things: property like what is listed in section 541 that the debtor gets after the case starts but before the case is closed, dismissed, or converted to chapter 7, 12, or 13 (whichever happens first), and wages or other money the debtor earns during that same period. Unless section 1185 says otherwise, when a plan under this subchapter is confirmed (or an order confirms it), the debtor keeps possession of all estate property.
