RULE 4003-1. LIEN AVOIDANCE Unless lien avoidance is provided for in a Chapter 13 plan, a separate motion under Bankruptcy Rule 4003(d) shall be filed with respect to each creditor that holds a lien on exempt property that the debtor seeks to avoid pursuant to 11 U.S.C. § 522(f). Only nonpossessory, nonpurchase money liens on exempt personal property may be avoided in a Chapter 13 plan. Judicial liens must be avoided by filing a separate motion with respect to each such lien.
