Description
Charles R. Crowell filed for Chapter 13 reorganization on January 4, 1988. Crowell claimed a rural homestead exemption under Texas law for a forty-two (42) acre tract of land within the city limits of Keller, Texas. Theodore Bender Accounting, Inc. ("Bender") had a lien on the forty-two acres. The Chapter 13 Trustee objected to the designation of all forty-two acres as exempt rural homestead. Thereafter, Crowell intitiated an adversary proceeding to invalidate Bender's lien, and Bender counter-claimed asserting the validity of its lien and sought a judgment of foreclosure. Then, without notice to Bender and without a hearing, the Chapter 13 Trustee abandoned his objection by agreement with Crowell.
