Ranchers State Bank of Belen v. Vega

This case was brought in the District Court of Socorro County to foreclose a mortgage in favor of Ranchers State Bank of Belen (Ranchers). The United States Government intervened as plaintiff to foreclose a judgment lien against the same real estate. Foreclosure was granted subject to a homestead exemption of $20,000. The court later amended its judgment by decreasing the exemption amount to $10,000. Defendant Mary Vega appeals from the amended judgment. We affirm the district courts amended judgment.
