Upon careful review of the briefs and record, we find no error in the bankruptcy court's determination, In re Van Rye, 179 B.R. 375, 378-79 (Bankr.D.Mass.1995), that the trustee had standing to object to the debtor's homestead exemption claim. See First National Bank v. Norris, 701 F.2d 902, 904 (11th Cir.1983); see also In re Duda, 182 B.R. 662, 665 n. 1 (Bankr.D.Conn.1995); In re Michael, 185 B.R. 830, 836-37 (Bankr.D.Mont.1995).
