What is the name of your state? Utah
I have another question from my continuing saga to collect on a judgment. We were successful in obtaining a judgment against an individual who has continued, to this date, to try and hide from it. This individual is the registered agent of a corporation that is run by him and his wife. I had garnishment papers served on the business a couple weeks ago. He was the one that was served the papers. As of yesterday, the answers to the interrogatories had not been filed with the court. My question is, is there anything that I can do to get my money from him through wage garnishment? I have looked at the rules regarding garnishment, and what may happen if the garnishee fails to answer the interragotories, but I am still confused. The rules make it sound like I can only get back, from the garnishee, the amount of money it cost me to file the writ, and to have it served. But in the instructions to the garnishee, there is an explicit warning that if the answers are not filed within 5 business days, the creditor may request that the court order the garnishee to pay the amount it should have withheld. Does that mean the entire judgment, or just the amount that could’ve been garnished in one pay period?
Thanks for any help I can get.
