Heading: The 59-Acre Tract

Text: 55 The bankruptcy court ruled that Perry could not claim the 59-acre tract as part of his rural homestead because its sole use was to support the business which forfeited homestead protection for the 26-acre tract. Because we vacate the bankruptcy court's ruling that the operation of a business on the 26-acre tract forfeited the property's homestead status, we must also vacate the court's opinion with respect to the 59-acre tract. 56 For the foregoing reasons, the bankruptcy court's judgment based upon its determination that Perry forfeited the homestead character of the 26-acre and 59-acre tracts by operating a business on the property is VACATED and the case is REMANDED for further proceedings not inconsistent with this opinion. 57 VACATED and REMANDED.
