522f question
So perhaps the best practice is to use up to the full exemption amount,
including the value of the judicial lien:
FMV: 100K
Mortgage: 50K
Judicial lien: 20K
Exemption: 50K

Or, stated differently, will you add $1 in exemption over the FMV to comply
with the language of the statute?

Add the maximum exemption to the consensual liens and before the judgment lien(s). If total of consensual liens and exemption is greater than the collateral's value, then the judgment liens can be avoided 100%.

522(f) reads in relevant part:
(A) For the purposes of this subsection, a lien shall be considered to
impair an exemption to the extent that the sum of
(i) the lien;
(ii) all other liens on the property; and
(iii) the amount of the exemption that the debtor could claim if there were
no liens on the property;
exceeds the value that the debtors interest in the property would have in
the absence of any liens.
If a debtor has equity in a house above the value of the liens, but
exempted more than the amount of the lien, can the lien be avoided under
522(f)?
Using easy numbers:
value of house: 100K
