Oklahoma Bankruptcy Law
Chapter 7 bankruptcy is sometimes called “liquidation” because of the process of selling non-exempt assets to raise money to compensate the creditors. Liquidation simply means conversion to cash, which a bankruptcy trustee can accomplish by selling personal possessions.
Some personal possessions are protected from the liquidation sale. These protected assets (called exemptions) depend on where you live. Here’s a basic outline of the exemptions available to Oklahoma bankruptcy filers:
Homestead: Your principal residence, including a manufactured home.
Wages: 75 percent of weekly earnings earned in 90 days.
Vehicle: One motor vehicle worth up to $7,500.
Personal Property:
- 100 percent of household and kitchen furniture.
- All cemetery lots.
- All tools for farming and farm animals.
- All professionally prescribed healthy aids.
- All books, portraits and pictures.
- Up to $4,000 worth of clothing.
- Up to $2,000 worth of guns.
