Lien Avoidance

MOTION FOR LIEN AVOIDANCE
 
Overview:
 
A debtor may avoid a lien on property to the extent that the lien impairs an exemption to which the debtor would have been entitled. A lien shall be considered to impair an exemption to the extent that the sum of the lien, all other liens, and the amount of the exemption that the debtor could claim if there were no liens on the property, exceeds the value that the debtor's interest in the property would have in the absence of any liens.
