SUMMARY AS PASSED: (all summaries)

Garnishment. Provides that a garnishee has no liability to the judgment creditor for failing to deliver the judgment debtor's property, other than earnings, if the summons does not contain sufficient or accurate information to enable the garnishee to reasonably identify the judgement debtor. If the summons contains either the social security number or taxpayer identification number or the name and address of the judgment debtor as they appear in the records of the garnishee, the summons is deemed to contain information sufficient to reasonably identify the property, and the garnishee shall answer the summoning court and send the judgment debtor a copy of its answer to the court.
