Can I open a new bank account when my current one has been frozen?
Is it possible to open a new account in a different bank when my current one at my bank has been frozen? My previous landlord sued me and his lawyer sent the court appearance to my old address, which sounds very sneaky, unfortunately a judgement was granted and my account has been frozen. When this happens, how long before the bank releases the money? I plan to dispute this because I was not aware of a court date, what can I do. I also have direct deposit can they as well garnish my wages? Please advise... I am desperate I am a single mom and now have 0 in my account which was only to pay bills with. Thanks in advance.
