United States Bankruptcy Appellate Panel, of the Ninth Circuit.

Decided April 19, 1995.

Attorney(s) appearing for the Case

Peter H. Arkison, Bellingham, WA, pro se.

Mary C. Lobdell, Seattle, WA, for State of Wash.

John G. Kamb, Jr., Mt. Vernon, WA, for Robert Carl Nelson.

OPINION

ASHLAND, Bankruptcy Judge:

Nelson filed a Chapter 7 petition and scheduled $20,000 as exempt under Washington Revenue Code § 6.15.020 (RCW) as it pertains to an IRA. The trustee asserts that the exemptions found in RCW § 6.15.020 impermissibly connect ERISA and IRA treatment, and are therefore invalid. The bankruptcy court allowed the exemption. We affirm.
