[CLBS] Can I stack car exemptions on one car?

I won't object if you do.  Yes, you can use both car exemptions to exempt up
to $14,000 of equity in a car.  Issues to consider:  do both debtors have
their names on the title?  If one has no ownership interest, there may be an
issue whether that one can exempt equity in a car that he or she does not
own.  If the car was titled in one debtor's name only, was the car community
property?  If it is community property, then I think the debtor whose name
is not on the title would have a sufficient ownership interest to allow that
person to use his or her exemption on it.

Good luck.


Thanks.
