11 U.S.C. § 1127 — Modification of plan

**(a)** The proponent of a plan may modify such plan at any time before confirmation, but may not modify such plan so that such plan as modified fails to meet the requirements of sections 1122 and 1123 of this title. After the proponent of a plan files a modification of such plan with the court, the plan as modified becomes the plan. **(b)** The proponent of a plan or the reorganized debtor may modify such plan at any time after confirmation of such plan and before substantial consummation of such plan, but may not modify such plan so that such plan as modified fails to meet the requirements of sections 1122 and 1123 of this title. Such plan as modified under this subsection becomes the plan only if circumstances warrant such modification and the court, after notice and a hearing, confirms such plan as modified, under [section 1129 of this title](https://uscode.house.gov/view.xhtml?req=granuleid:USC-prelim-title11-section1129&num=0&edition=prelim). **(c)** The proponent of a modification shall comply with [section 1125 of this title](https://uscode.house.gov/view.xhtml?req=granuleid:USC-prelim-title11-section1125&num=0&edition=prelim) with respect to the plan as modified. **(d)** Any holder of a claim or interest that has accepted or rejected a plan is deemed to have accepted or rejected, as the case may be, such plan as modified, unless, within the time fixed by the court, such holder changes such holder’s previous acceptance or rejection. **(e)** If the debtor is an individual, the plan may be modified at any time after confirmation of the plan but before the completion of payments under the plan, whether or not the plan has been substantially consummated, upon request of the debtor, the trustee, the United States trustee, or the holder of an allowed unsecured cla
