NEW YORK STATE
We recently won a judgement in small claims court. (Town of Manlius, Onondaga County, NY).
In order to collect, we need to know where this person works as well as other information (bank accounts, vehicle titles, etc.) that we could enlist the help of an enforcement officer.
We have filed informational subpeonas to the other party -- but the court clerk told us that rarely do people fill out the requested information and have it notorized as directed by the court. I would hire a private investigator, but we'd quickly spend more money tracking the other party down than we'd recover!
I've noticed that in California, the judge may issue a bench warrant which would compel the person to provide the information at the risk of being arrested.
Does NY subscribe to the same code? What is the proper way to ask for this?
