1 The New (Adjusted) Dollar Amounts reflect a 13.2004 percent increase, rounded to the nearest $25. This is the change in the Consumer Price Index for All Urban Consumers from December 2021 to December 2024. 11 U.S.C. § 104(a)(1).
2 There is no dollar amount currently set forth in 11 U.S.C. § 1182(1). Most recently, the Bankruptcy Threshold Adjustment and Technical Corrections Act (BTATCA) (Pub. L. 117-151, 136 Stat. 1298) added a dollar amount to that section, but the BTATCA provision that included the dollar amount expired on June 21, 2024.
