                              CLAIM FOR EXEMPTIONS,
                 REQUEST FOR HEARING, AND/OR REQUEST FOR TRANSFER

                 [ ] I think that the property the garnishee _________________ is withholding is

       exempt under the following applicable exemption(s): ____________________________.

                 [X] I request a [X] hearing in this district or a [ ] transfer to the federal district where I

       reside.
       The undersigned submits this request in light of the Court's February 10, 2026 denial of Mr. Reis's request to

       and hereby expressly preserves all rights, including appellate rights, regarding his request to transfer
       these proceedings. Mr. Reis further respectfully requests that the Court refrain from setting a hearing until
       the parties can submit a joint proposed schedule for discovery in this matter.
