OPINION BY Senior Justice CHARLES S. RUSSELL.

This appeal presents the question whether the plaintiff in an action to recover damages for personal injuries had standing to maintain his action after filing a petition for bankruptcy, causing his claim to become an asset of his bankruptcy estate. To answer the question, we must determine whether the plaintiff's cause of action was exempted or abandoned in the bankruptcy proceeding.
