The court confirmed a five-year plan that required Coleman to commit all of her disposable income to paying the student loans. Less than a year later, she was laid off. Still owing more than $100,000 in student loans, Coleman asked the court to discharge the debt on the ground that paying it would be an undue hardship for her.
