TO THE DEFENDANT(S):
Failure to appear and answer this Summons will result in judgment by default being rendered against your for the relief requested. Tennessee law provides a four thousand dollar ($4000) personal property and five thousand dollar ($5000) homestead exemption from execution or seizure to satisfy a judgment. If a judgment should be entered against you in this action and you with to claim property as exempt, you must file a written list, under oath, of the items you wish to claim as exempt with the clerk of the court. The list may be filed at any time and may be changed by you thereafter as necessary; however, unless it is filed before the judgment becomes final, it will not be effective as to any execution or garnishment issued prior to the filing of the list. Certain items are automatically exempt by law and do not need to be listed; these items include items of necessary wearing apparel (clothing) for yourself and your family and trunks and other receptacles necessary to contain such apparel, family portraits, the family Bible, and school books. Should any of these items be seized you would have the right to recover them. If you do not understand your exemption right of how to execute it, you may wish to seek the counsel of a lawyer.
