Legal Question in Credit and Debt Law in New York

Re: account freeze

A creditor with a judgment can both garnish the judgment debtor's wages and levy a writ of execution against the judgment debtor's bank account (or just restrain the account pursuant to a restraining notice).

Please see the prior posting on our Blog (newyorkbankruptcylawyerblog.com) on the topic of dealing with a default judgment. The posts are:
