Holding

In
re Alexander
(DBN Subscription Required) |
8th
Cir. BAP |
A
debtor who had separated from
his spouse on the date his
bankruptcy was filed could not
claim the house in which his
spouse was residing as an
exempt homestead, since
Minnesota law requires a
debtor to physically reside at
a home stead for the exemption
to apply.
A debtor
cannot use Rule 60(b) to
relitigate issues that have
been decided against him on
appeal.
