In this task, you will be shown a prompt from a judicial decision and multiple holding statements derived from citations following text in a legal decision.  Holdings represent the governing legal rule when the law is applied to a particular set of facts. There are five answer choices for each citing text. The correct answer is the holding statement that corresponds to the citing text. The four incorrect answers are other holding statements. You should find the correct option. There is a <HOLDING> token in the position of the citing text prompt where the holding statement was extracted.

five years. The issue is thus whether the time Hartman served in prison after the IJ’s improper decision should count toward the five-year bar. The Court holds that it should not count and thus, contrary to the BIA’s ruling in March 2002, the application for § 212(c) relief was not untimely when the IJ addressed the merits of that application on January 25, 2001. 1. The Statutory Five-Year Bar At the outset, the Court addresses Hartman’s argument that the five-year clock stops upon filing an application for § 212(c) relief, which, in this case, would be January 1997. The Court disagrees with that argument. The five-year clock of § 212(c) does not stop when an alien, such as Hartman, files an application for a discretionary waiver. See Gomes v. Ashcroft, 311 F.3d 43, 45 (1st Cir.2002) (<HOLDING>); Falconi v. INS, 240 F.Supp.2d 215, 218

What he claimed was that it wasn’t property of the estate.” The Court need not reach the issue of whether listing the wrong statute as a basis for an exemption on Schedule “C” is a fatal to the claim. The Debtor was correct that Fed.R.Bank.P. 4003 applies. However, it offers little comfort to him because the Debtor’s counsel waived such defense. Upon filing the Amendment to the Schedules on April 19,2002, the Debt- or’s counsel reopened the issue, at least as to the trust property, and triggered the tolling of a new 30 day period within which the Chapter 7 Trustee was permitted to object.
