OPINION RE: CHAPTER 7 TRUSTEE’S MAY 19, 2008 OBJECTION TO EXEMPTIONS
JEFFREY R. HUGHES, Bankruptcy Judge.
The Chapter 7 Trustee, Jeff A. Moyer (“Trustee”), has objected to Debtor David Thomasma’s claimed exemption of his 2007 tax refunds. Trustee contends that Debtor is time-barred from claiming this exemption because Debtor failed to include the refunds in his original schedules. For the reasons stated in this opinion, Trustee’s argument is rejected. However, Trustee may still proceed with whatever argument he may have that Debtor’s belated exemption of these refunds is otherwise improper.
