In most states tax abatements, deferments, and exemptions depend upon the qualifications of the owners of the property. When a property is sold the new owners must apply for any abatement, deferment, or exemption. The property is assessed and taxed as an other taxable property unless you apply for and get approval for homestead exemption status. The qualifying requirements vary from state to state, and some states (Virginia for example) have no homestead exemption at the present time.

If this is a reference to a summons received from the court that a lawsuit has been filed by a creditor or collector, it is best to obtain legal counsel. If that is not an option, the defendant should be certain they claim all property exemptions allowable under the laws of the state where they reside. If the defendant is a homeowner be certain the homestead exemption has been properly filed. In some states the homestead exemption is automatized under state statutes and does not need to be filed. State and/or federal bankruptcy exemptions also apply to lawsuit judgments for protecting a defendant's property from creditor attachment.


What can you do if your credit card company is suing you for nonpayment?

Two very important things, respond to the summons, and make certain to claim all the property exemptions that are allowed in accordance with the state laws where you live. If you own a home make sure the homestead exemption has been properly filed if it is required. The homestead exemption is what protects the equity in the primary residence and keeps creditors from using a lien to execute a forced sale of the property. If a lawsuit is not defended, and exemption claims are not filed, the defendant loses the case by default. This could result in the loss of real and personal property that would otherwise have been exempted from creditor attachment.
