About this statute

The Court says the legislature must refine the rules on enforcing debts against a debtor’s home when the home is the only suitable place to live, especially for oversized housing. The Constitutional Court says the law on immunity for a debtor’s only suitable home is valid, but the legislature must improve the rules so creditor interests can be considered when the home is clearly larger than needed. The challenged rule is described as forbidding enforcement against the debtor's only home fit for permanent residence, even where its size and quality would allow enforcement while keeping minimally necessary housing conditions.
