DECISION AND ORDER DENYING DEBTOR’S CLAIM OF EXEMPT PROPERTY

ARTHUR N. VOTOLATO, Jr., Bankruptcy Judge.

Heard on January 28, 1993 on the Chapter 7 Trustee’s Objection to a claim of exempt property filed by the Debtor, Joyce Bonzey. At issue is Bonzey’s claimed exemption of a 1992 Pontiac automobile which was purchased with proceeds traceable to her workers’ compensation benefits. The Debtor contends that R.I.Gen.Laws § 28-33-27 authorizes such an exemption, while the Trustee argues that the exemption ended when Bonzey received a lump sum compensation payment for her work-related injury.
