Ruling
Debtor had no homestead exemption in future proceeds of sale of property of which debtor was divested in divorce proceeding.
Procedural posture
Appellee, the chapter 7 trustee, objected to appellant debtor's claim of a homestead exemption in his former marital residence under Massachusetts law on grounds that the state probate court had divested the debtor of his interest in that property in a divorce action prior to bankruptcy. This appeal by debtor was from the order of the U.S. Bankruptcy Court for the District of Massachusetts sustaining the trustee's objection.
