Law Offices of Moore & Moore v. Stoneking (In Re Stoneking)
United States Bankruptcy Appellate Panel for the Ninth Circuit
1Opinion of the Court
OPINION
MONTALI, Bankruptcy Judge.
On appeal a creditor asks the panel to uphold its judicial lien despite the debtor’s challenge under 11 U.S.C. § 522(f)(1). 2 To do so would require us to extend the United States Supreme Court decision in Farrey v. Sanderfoot, 500 U.S. 291, 111 S.Ct. 1825, 114 L.Ed.2d 337 (1991) beyond its stated limits. 3 We will not do that, and thus will AFFIRM the bankruptcy court’s decision to avoid the judicial lien that impaired the debtor’s exemption.
