Practice question: Properties Exempt from Execution

Multiple Choice Hard

Practice question

A debtor invokes a listed Section13 exemption against execution of a valid foreclosure judgment on the very mortgaged property. No overriding special protection is established. It argues that the list defeats foreclosure in every case. Which is best?
  1. The exemption list always cancels mortgages
  2. Foreclosure is unrelated to the final paragraph
  3. The debtor’s claim of necessity alone eliminates every security
  4. The final paragraph expressly excepts execution on a foreclosure judgment over the property, subject to any actually applicable overriding law
  5. The creditor may enforce without any lawful judgment or process
