(This is one of a series of posts about 2011 legislation.)
SB 1810 amends Section 42.0021 of the Property Code to provide that all IRAs, including inherited IRAs, are 
exempt from creditors' claims. It provides that the interest of a person in an IRA acquired by reason of the death of another person is exempt to the same extent that the interest of the person from whom the account was acquired was exempt on the date of the person's death.
The exempt status of inherited IRAs was called into question by In re Jarboe, 2007 WL 987314 (Bankr. S. D. Tex 2007), and by similar cases across the country.
Section affected: Property Code Section 42.0021.
