Court of Appeals for the Seventh Circuit July 30, 1987, 86-2107, 86-2167 (In the Matter of Ronald and Marjorie Patterson, Debtors. Appeal of Abbotsford State Bank)

POSNER, Circuit Judge.

This farm bankruptcy case raises questions of interpretation under 11 U.S.C. § 522, the statute that governs the bankrupt’s right to take some of his property out of the bankrupt estate and thus keep it after he is discharged from bankruptcy.

Mr. and Mrs. Patterson were engaged in dairy farming in Wisconsin.
