Garnishment - Proceedings in aid of execution

Official statutory text

In any action wherein garnishment summons is served on the

lessor or a party to an action seeks to subject a box or contents

thereof to the garnishment or order of court, the lessor, upon being

served with such garnishment or court order, shall seal the box and

deny access thereto to all persons except as ordered by the court.

A court of record may, in a proceeding wherein the lessee is a

party, in aid of execution or for the purpose of enforcing its

orders, direct the sheriff or marshal to enter a box, remove the

contents therefrom and hold, deliver or sell such contents as

permitted by law. Damages suffered by the lessor by reason of

forcible entry as provided herein shall be assessed as costs and

paid to the lessor by the garnishment creditor. If no court order

directing entry into the box is served upon the lessor within thirty

(30) days after a garnishment summons is received by the lessor, the

box shall be unsealed and the lessor shall no longer be required to

deny access to parties entitled thereto.
