Legal Question in Consumer Law in Georgia

Civil Judgements - Homes Exempt from seizure?

I lived in Fla for many years and owned homes there. I now live in Ga and would like to know if there is any protection afforded to homsteads to keep them from being taken if you get sued in civil court and lose? In Fla your home is protected, best example is that OJ moved to Fla from Calif so as to be able to keep his home from being seized and sold.

Any protections in Ga. law?

You have a $10,000 homestead exemption in Georgia. Not close to Florida's.
