S T A T E O F N E W Y O R K ________________________________________________________________________ 615 2009-2010 Regular Sessions I N A S S E M B L Y (PREFILED) January 7, 2009 ___________ Introduced by M. of A. JEFFRIES -- read once and referred to the Commit- tee on Judiciary AN ACT to amend the civil practice law and rules, in relation to increasing the value of homesteads which are to be exempt from civil judgments THE PEOPLE OF THE STATE OF NEW YORK, REPRESENTED IN SENATE AND ASSEM- BLY, DO ENACT AS FOLLOWS: Section 1. Subdivisions (a), (d) and (e) of section 5206 of the civil practice law and rules, as amended by chapter 623 of the laws of 2005, are amended to read as follows: (a) Exemption of homestead. Property of one of the following types, not exceeding TWO HUNDRED fifty thousand dollars in value above liens and encumbrances, owned and occupied as a principal residence, is exempt from application to the satisfaction of a money judgment, unless the judgment was recovered wholly for the purchase price thereof: 1. a lot of land with a dwelling thereon, 2. shares of stock in a cooperative apartment corporation, 3. units of a condominium apartment, or 4. a mobile home. But no exempt homestead shall be exempt from taxation or from sale for non-payment of taxes or assessments. (d) Exemption of homestead exceeding TWO HUNDRED fifty thousand dollars in value. The exemption of a homestead is not void because the value of the property exceeds TWO HUNDRED fifty thousand dollars but the lien of a judgment attaches to the surplus. (e) Sale of homestead exceeding TWO HUNDRED fifty thousand dollars in value. A judgment creditor may commence a special proceeding in the county in which the homestead is located against the judgment debtor for the sale, by a sheriff or receiver, of a homestead exceeding TWO HUNDRED fifty thousand dollars in value. The court may direct that the notice of EXPLANATION--Matter in ITALICS (underscored) is new; matter in brackets [ ] is old law to be omitted.
