I'm sure you're right, LodgeDodger. However, I'm thinking of how personal bankruptcies are usually carried out. For instance, if I file Chapter 7, I have to provide the court with a list of all my assets. Any assets in excess of the state exemptions are eligible to be seized by my creditors. If Detroit filed BK, would the DIA artworks be assets that could be sold off or seized, or are city bankruptcies handled differently?

And I'll have that nice medieval chapel with the gorgeous stained glass that's near the Kresge Court. It would make a nice add-on to the homestead here in Hamtown.
