Before KRESSEL, Chief Judge, SCHERMER and MAHONEY, Bankruptcy Judges.

Richard V. Fink, Chapter 13 trustee (the “Trustee”) for the bankruptcy estate of Eddie Nelson Thompson and Janice Juanita Thompson (the “Debtors”), appeals from an order confirming the Debtors’ Chapter 13 plan.*fn1 The Trustee claims that the Debtors’ plan should not have been confirmed because it did not meet the good faith standard under section 1325(a)(3) of Title 11 of the United States Code (the “Bankruptcy Code”) since it did not provide for payment of the Debtors’ entire Social Security income to their unsecured creditors.
