Yes they can attach or freeze that bank account. Then the person who does not have the judgement against them will have to file a injured party motion to release those funds that are thiers.
So the money will be froze till you prove in court it is your money
As long as you are a joint owner of the asset, they can attach it.
So does he need to go to my garnishment hearing with me ?or does he need to file a motion to Quash Garnishment ?:Quote:

thanks yes on the back of the paper that was mailed to me in small print said I had 14 days to file for protest to stop garnishmentQuote:
