Ruling
Judicial lien avoided as totally impairing debtor's possible exemption.
Procedural posture
A bankruptcy debtor claimed exemptions of specific amounts in real properties, and there were no objections to the exemptions. The debtor moved to avoid a judicial lien pursuant to 11 U.S.C.S. § 522(f)(1) as impairing the debtor's exemptions, but the lienholders claimed that their lien did not impair the exemptions to the extent of the debtor's unexempted equity in the properties.
