《楊清泉律師專欄》INACTIVE OPEN BANKRUPTCY CASE BAD FOR HOMESTEAD EXEMPTION(PART I)
From the title of the article you know that an INACTIVE OPEN BANKRUPTCY CASE IS BAD FOR YOUR HOMESTEAD EXEMPTION. So, now you ask yourself, why is it bad for your homestead exemption? Trust me it’s BAD. Let’s say OBAMA comes back from the G20 meeting in Seoul next week and instead of him bowing and genuflecting to all the other G20 world leaders, he was able to put marijuana in their food, and all 19 world leaders bow and genuflect to OBAMA and his plan for American and world economic recovery, i.e. print another trillion of American dollars every 6 months and go for broke as if there were no tomorrow. The entire world is now in lock step with our charismatic president’s economic plan and the plan actually works. Six months from now, our economy grows at 18%, China’s 20%, India’s 22%, Germany’s 23%. No more unemployment in America. Everyone here in America is gainfully employed in high paying jobs. Instead of a foreclosure problem, we are faced with a critical shortage of homes. Hence, your house doubles in value. In May, 2011, realtors are knocking your door down asking you to list your house for sale at $800,000. You think of pocketing half a million dollars of equity and moving to Hawaii. Whoa, hold on. The chapter 7 trustee is thinking the same thing. He is going to sell your house for $800,000 and give you your claimed exemption of $100,000, pocketing $400,000 of your equity to pay your credit card debts of $200,000 and his legal fees of $100,000.
After your heart attack, during your momentary lucid moment, you argue that the trustee’s request for permission to sell your house came more than 6 months after you got a discharge. You also argue that the trustee failed to object to your claim of homestead exemption for all of the equity in your house within 30 days of the 341-A hearing; therefore, trustee has lost his right to object to exemption. Trustee argues that he may force the sale of your house to recover nonexempt equity that was not there when you filed your case. Who is correct? In re Gebhart and in re Chappell, the court of appeals for the 9th circuit agreed with the trustee.
