Book Description
This paper provides an overview of the homestead exemption and discusses some difficult homestead issues that arise in Texas bankruptcies. Issues discussed include: (a) exemptions of a less-than-fee-simple interest in a homestead; (b) the interaction of the bankruptcy exemption regime with the Texas rule protecting proceeds of sales of homesteads for six months; and (c) efforts to evade the homestead exemption through sham transactions.These are the written materials to accompany the presentation given by Hon. Tony M. Davis at the 31st Annual Jay L. Westbrook Bankruptcy Conference in Austin, Texas (Nov. 2013).

Book Description
When debtors file for bankruptcy protection under Title 11 of the U.S. Code, they may exempt the value of certain property; in many cases, this includes their homestead. In practical terms, to the extent that the property's value does not exceed the allowed exemption amount, the debtor may keep the property rather than its becoming part of the bankruptcy estate and thereby being available to satisfy creditors. This book surveys the homestead exemption laws of the 50 states and the District of Columbia with an emphasis on the amount of the exemptions and the extent to which debtors may choose between federal and state exemptions.
