  We consider a resonant level coupled to a chiral Luttinger liquid which can
be realized, e.g., at a fractional quantum Hall edge. We study the dependence
of the occupation probability n of the level on its energy \epsilon for various
values of the Luttinger-liquid parameter g. At g<1/2 a weakly coupled level
shows a sharp jump in n(\epsilon) at the Fermi level. As the coupling is
increased, the magnitude of the jump decreases until \sqrt{2g}, and then the
discontinuity in n(\epsilon) disappears. We show that n(\epsilon) can be
expressed in terms of the magnetization of a Kondo impurity as a function of
magnetic field.
