166023P.pdf 01/06/2017 Sheri L. Hanson v. Randall L. Seaver
U.S. Court of Appeals Case No: 16-6023
U.S. Bankruptcy Court for the District of Minnesota - Minneapolis
[PUBLISHED] [Saladino, Author, with Federman, Chief Judge, and Nail,
Bankruptcy Judge]
Bankruptcy Appellate Panel. The bankruptcy court did not err in holding
that a Minnesota property tax refund under Minn. Stat. Ann. Section
290A.04 was not exempt under Section 550.37 (Subd. 14) of the Minnesota
statutes as "government assistance not based on need;" the Panel's
decision in Manty v. Johnson, 509 B.R. 213 (B.A.P. 8th Cir. 2014) was not
overruled by the Eighth Circuit in In Re Hardy, 787 F.3d 1189 (2015);
Hardy dealt with Additional Child Tax Credits and has no bearing on the
Minnesota property tax refund statute at issue in this case and in
Johnson.
