In re Kluge (Case No. 11-61517) 10/03/2011

            The chapter 7 trustee objected to the debtors’ exemption under Virginia Code section 34-29 for “wages due but not received.”  The Court noted that section 34-29 of the Virginia Code only applies to earnings that are subject to garnishment.  The wages were not earnings subject to garnishment and were not the subject of a judicial or equitable proceeding.  Because the wages were not the subject of a garnishment, the Court sustained the chapter 7 trustee’s objection.
