I believe the trustee was John Wolfe and I believe it's in one of the Year
in Review cases---maybe within the last two years?

Subject to what Sam said about Dockery's office, in Chapter 7's Trustees (or at least one) has successfully gotten an order sequestering the sale proceeds, so that they are only used for exempt purpose of buying another homestead property, and if not used, they are property of the Estate. That is pretty extreme but is a risk. Maybe you can look up the program materials on this exact point. Not sure how that would apply in a Chapter 13 where there is no Estate administered by the Trustee.

So if the debtor sells the house and pays off some postpetition debt and no longer has the proceeds after 6 months, he could still be ordered to turn over the proceeds?

Also, make certain that the Debtor will have enough "credit" (don't lol) to purchase a primary residence within 180 Days. Or he can pay cash but probably out of the area perhaps. Just be careful that the trustee doesn't ask for their fees as well, seen it happen a few times even with short sales.

Even assuming you can amend, if this is a 5 year plan, will debtor be able to reinvest the exempt proceeds into another homestead property within six months? If not, debtor loses the exemption.

Be careful about the possible need to roll the proceeds into a new residence within 180 days to maintain the exemption as to the proceeds.

Thanks, Stella. Yes, if I were to file today using 704s, the client could exempt the entire equity.
