Body:
Trustees in three chapter 7 cases objected to debtors' exemption claims with respect to funds held in ERISA-qualified retirement plans. The court held that an ERISA retirement fund was an asset of debtors' estate that was not exempt within the meaning of 11 U.S.C. § 522(b)(2)(A), because the Utah statutes seeking to exempt such funds were preempted by ERISA pursuant to 29 U.S.C. § 1144(a). The district court affirmed the bankruptcy court's decision in 330.pdf.
