The high court accepted a certified question on the matter from the United States Bankruptcy Court for the Northern District of Indiana.
The question is: “Under Indiana Code [section] 27-1-12-14(e), does the phrase ‘dependent upon such person’ modify only ‘any relative,’ or does the phrase modify ‘spouse,’ ‘children,’ and ‘any relative’?” The question arises in Matter of Dennis Alan Howell, Debtor, 14-30094.
