How courts have described this case

Verbatim parenthetical descriptions written by other courts when citing this decision. Ranked by citation-network relevance.

• holding that debtor could avoid creditor’s judicial lien even though she sold the property before filing the motion to avoid judicial lien because debtor had an interest in the property before the lien attached
• allowing debtor to avoid a judicial lien that attached to debtor’s homestead even though she had since sold the property because lien avoidance “furthers the policy of liberally construing exemption provisions in order to give the debtor a fresh start.”
