Kernell Thaw v. Christopher Moser

Court of Appeals for the Fifth Circuit

Decided October 9, 2014No. 14-40108PublishedCited by 11 opinions

1Opinion of the Court

HIGGTNSON, Circuit Judge:

Kernell Thaw (“Kernell”), the non-debt- or spouse of Stanley Thaw (“Stanley”), claims a homestead exemption in property held jointly with Stanley that is subject to a forced sale in Stanley’s bankruptcy proceedings. She contends that the sale is a taking under the Fifth Amendment to the United States Constitution entitling her to just compensation. Because any potential property interest was acquired after the enactment of the Bankruptcy Abuse Prevention and Consumer Protection Act of 2005 (“BAPCPA”), there is no taking and we AFFIRM the lower courts.
