In Re Harrison
United States Bankruptcy Court, N.D. Illinois
1Opinion of the Court
MEMORANDUM OPINION
JOHN H. SQUIRES, Bankruptcy Judge.
This matter comes before the Court on the petition to avoid a lien filed by Henry Eartis Harrison (the “Debtor”) and the objections thereto of United Bell Credit Union (the “Creditor”). The Debtor seeks to avoid the Creditor’s judgment lien pursuant to 11 U.S.C. § 522(f)(1) on the ground that it impairs the Debtor’s homestead exemption claimed in the property. After review of the undisputed facts, the arguments of the parties, and the applicable authorities, the Court denies the petition and sustains the objections.
