Legal Question in Bankruptcy in South Dakota

In a letter from Citi, it states: If you include this debt in a bankruptcy filing, we are entitled to introduce this Agreement into evidence in any proceedings brought under Section (a)(2)(A).

I have searched everywhere but can't find out what Section 253 is in regards to. Can you help?
