Interrogatories Propounded To Garnishee Defendant

Indiana Interrogatories Propounded To Garnishee Defendant is a set of written questions that must be answered in writing and under oath by a garnishee defendant. The purpose of these interrogatories is to obtain information about the garnishee’s assets, financial affairs, and potential ability to pay the judgment debtor’s debt. Indiana’s Rules of Trial Procedure require that interrogatories must be served on the garnishee defendant along with the summons of garnishment. There are two types of Indiana Interrogatories Propounded To Garnishee Defendant: (1) interrogatories to obtain information regarding the garnishee’s assets, financial affairs, and potential ability to pay the judgment debtor’s debt; and (2) interrogatories to determine whether the garnishee defendant is subject to garnishment. The first type of interrogatories may ask the garnishee defendant to provide a list of all assets, liabilities, and income of the garnishee defendant, as well as any other information related to the garnishee defendant’s financial affairs. The second type of interrogatories may ask the garnishee defendant to identify any legal exemptions from garnishment, such as the garnishee defendant’s wages or other income from certain sources, like Social Security or retirement income. The interrogatories may also ask the garnishee defendant to identify any third parties who may have a claim to the garnishee’s assets, such as a lien holder. Once the interrogatories are answered, the creditor may use the information to determine if the garnishee defendant is subject to garnishment and how much of the garnishee defendant’s assets may be used to satisfy the judgment debtor’s debt.
