ORDER

JAMES S. MOODY, Jr., District Judge.

This cause comes before the Court upon the Magistrate Judge's Order dated January 14, 2016 (Dkt. #680), Travelers Casualty & Surety Company of America's Objection to the Magistrate Judge's January 14, 2016 Order (Dkt. #687), and Defendant Bing Charles W. Kearney's Response to Travelers' Objection to Magistrate Judge's January 14, 2016 Order (Dkt. #691). Upon review and consideration, the Court concludes that Travelers' Objection should be overruled.

The Magistrate Judge did not err when he denied Travelers' Motion to Strike Defendant Bing Charles W. Kearney's Amended Claim of Exemption. Under the unique facts presented, the interests of justice dictate that Kearney should be granted leave to amend his claim of exemption. Kearney timely filed a claim of exemption claiming head of household and tenants-by-the-entireties exemptions, as well as unspecified "other exemptions as provided by law." Kearney's failure to place a checkmark or "X" on the line indicating the retirement funds exemption was due to a scrivener's error—the oversight does not prejudice Travelers because Travelers was already aware that Kearney disputed the garnishment and was already on notice that the funds held by USAmeriBank included retirement funds.

It is therefore ORDERED and ADJUDGED that Travelers Casualty & Surety Company of America's Objection to the Magistrate Judge's January 14, 2016 Order (Dkt. #687) is OVERRULED.

DONE and ORDERED.
