In re Conner (Case No. 09-50314) 6/29/2009

Debtor failed to timely record her homestead deed, therefore the Court sustained trustee's objection to the debtor's claimed homestead exemption.  The debtor's 341 meeting concluded on April 7, 2009 and was not adjourned to a later date.  The fact that the trustee issued a notice of assets on June 10, 2009 was immaterial. Because Virginia law includes weekends in computing the five day post section 341 meeting period, the period in the case ended on August 12, 2009.  The debtor recorded her homestead deed on April 15, 2009.  Thus, the debtor failed to timely record her homestead deed pursuant to Virginia Code section 34-17.
