In Re Seth W. Yerrington, Debtor.luba Yerrington, Appellee, v. Seth W. Yerrington, Appellant, 19 F.3d 32 (9th Cir. 1994)

Annotate this Case
US Court of Appeals for the Ninth Circuit - 19 F.3d 32 (9th Cir. 1994) Submitted Feb. 4, 1994. *Decided March 3, 1994

Before: REAVLEY,**  SKOPIL, and LEAVY, Circuit Judges.


MEMORANDUM*** 

Seth Yerrington ("Debtor") appeals from a decision of the Ninth Circuit Bankruptcy Appellate Panel ("BAP"), unanimously reversing a bankruptcy court ruling in his favor. See In re Yerrington, 144 B.R. 96 (Bankr. 9th Cir. 1992). Debtor asserts a single issue on appeal: For purposes of 11 U.S.C. § 522(f) (1), did he have a pre-dissolution interest in homestead property to which a judicial lien subsequently attached? The BAP answered the question in the negative, and we agree with that determination. See In re Catli, 999 F.2d 1405, 1407-1408 (9th Cir. 1993) (construing 11 U.S.C. § 522(f) (1) in light of Farrey v. Sanderfoot, 500 U.S. 291, ----, 111 S. Ct. 1825, 1827-28, 1830-31 (1991)).

AFFIRMED.
