TIGNOR v. PARKINSON

No. 82-2046.

729 F.2d 977 (1984)

Henry Clay TIGNOR, Appellee, v. William C. PARKINSON, Jr., Appellant. In re Henry Clay TIGNOR, Debtor.

United States Court of Appeals, Fourth Circuit.

Decided March 15, 1984.

Attorney(s) appearing for the Case

R. Shawn Majette, Richmond, Va., for appellant.

John L. Gayle, Charles O. Boyles, Richmond, Va., for appellee.

Before WIDENER and ERVIN, Circuit Judges, and HAYNSWORTH, Senior Circuit Judge.

WIDENER, Circuit Judge:

This case presents two issues on appeal: (1) whether this debtor can amend his bankruptcy schedules, and (2) whether and to what extent an exemption is allowable from the bankrupt estate for the debtor's personal injury settlement proceeds. We agree with the district court that the debtor may amend his schedules, but we reverse that court's decision permitting his claimed exemption for all of the personal injury settlement proceeds.
