Two horses?! I can't tell if you're joking. I sincerely hope this is true. I'm imagining a sad Texas cowboy riding off into the sunset with just his two favorite mounts. "At least they didn't take mah horse!"
- waterhouse 5y agoI googled "texas bankruptcy horses" and it seems a real thing, e.g. [1]: Another good aspect of Texas bankruptcy code for farmers and ranchers is the specific delineations of property that are allowed to be kept during bankruptcy: 2 horses, mules or donkeys and a saddle, blanket and bridle for each, 12 head of cattle, 60 head of other types of livestock, 12 fowl and pets. If you’re a farmer or rancher considering bankruptcy, Chapter 12 could be a better option—a bankruptcy allowed specifically for the debts of a family farmer or fisherman.

- bserge 5y agoVery interesting and rather amusing stuff, must be an old law? I wonder why no one pushed to upgrade the "horses" to "motorcycles" or "cars".
