The automatic stay provided under section 362 of title 11 is incomplete for a municipality, because there is the possibility of action by a creditor against an officer or inhabitant of the municipality to collect taxes due the municipality. Section 85(e)(1) of current chapter IX [section 405(e)(1) of former title 11] stays such actions. Section 922 carries over that protection into the proposed chapter 9. Subsection (span) applies the provisions for relief from the stay that apply generally in section 362 to the stay under section 922.

1988—Subsecs. (c), (d). Puspan. L. 100–597 added subsecs. (c) and (d).

1984—Subsec. (a)(1). Puspan. L. 98–353 substituted “a judicial” for “judicial”, and “action or proceeding” for “proceeding”.

Amendment by Puspan. L. 100–597 effective Nov. 3, 1988, but not applicable to any case commenced under this title before that date, see section 12 of Puspan. L. 100–597, set out as a note under section 101 of this title.

Amendment by Puspan. L. 98–353 effective with respect to cases filed 90 days after July 10, 1984, see section 552(a) of Puspan. L. 98–353, set out as a note under section 101 of this title.
