In re Whitney
Oct
25
2011
Ruling
Debtor was not entitled to homestead exemption in lot adjacent to residence.
Procedural posture
The chapter 7 trustee objected to the homestead exemption claimed by debtors, a married couple, per Ohio Rev. Code Ann. § 2329.66 on the ground that it impermissibly covered two contiguous parcels, one of which was the site of their home and the other of which was vacant. In addition, the trustee challenged whether the homestead exemption applied to mineral and gas rights associated with the claimed homestead.
