Brief that Exemptions are freely amendable
Thank you Pat.
I also found the Supreme Court case of Law v. Siegel, 134 S. Ct. 1188 (2014) in which they cannot even surcharge exemptions for bad faith any more.
I forgot about that case. It makes it a matter of state law that is the Debtor's choice and even the court cannot choose for them.
I don't expect too many more of these kinds of outcomes for the Debtor's bar in the future.

Does anyone have quick access to case law that I think is pretty well settled - so I've never had to argue it-that exemptions are freely amendable by the Debtor.
This is not the typical matter where I'm fighting a Trustee and not central to my defense-it's a belligerent creditor in a 522(f) and pretty peripheral, so I'm looking for a quick little shortcut.
Just looking for a case number or name of a case where you may have addressed it and I can get it from PACER
Thank you
