The Bankruptcy Abuse Prevention and Consumer Protection Act of 2005 (BAPCPA) limited the types and quantities of exempt household goods on which debtors could avoid certain liens. Part of the motivation for these changes was a perception that debtors were using household goods as collateral to obtain loans that they never intended to repay. This study found no changes in debtor or creditor behavior due to the new definition of household goods.Carroll, Stephen J. is the author of 'Effects of the Changes in Chapter 7 Debtors Lien-Avoidance Rights under the Bankruptcy Abuse Prevention and Consumer Protection Act of 2005', published 2008 under ISBN 9780833042071 and ISBN 0833042076.
